Stereotactic radiosurgery
Stereotactic radiosurgery is a form of radiation therapy that focuses high-powered x-rays on a small area of the body. With regular radiation therapy treatment, healthy tissue that is nearby also receives radiation. Stereotactic radiosurgery better focuses the radiation on the abnormal area. Despite its name, it is considered a form of radiation therapy, not a surgical procedure.
