Great webinar! Glad to see it here as I missed the event Live. Really enjoyable!
Thank you @BabbageIsBack
can you show actual footage of radiosurgery for meningioma?
The brilliant Dr Norman McConachy QMC was my Interventional Radiologist and referred me to Sheffield. None of the stages were easy, but the results were easier to manage after treatment, than before.
I have avm and had 1 treatment so far , it was horrid is there any better way other than the metal frame ?
There are other options that can be discussed with your consultant neurosurgeons. Please do get in touch though our website or telephone line and we will try to direct you best we can.

Great talk, really outstanding content
Thank you for participating to our webinar
I have had 5 x gamma knife treatments within 2 years at Sheffield. I'm so greatful this is available
Thank you for sharing your experience with gamma knife treatments in Sheffield! We are pleased to hear it has been beneficial for you.
Thank you for the presentation. I'm interested to know if there have been any associations of lifestyle with tumor growth. For example, many people say that incorporating a carnivore diet, particularly in terms of limiting sugar intake, can have a drastic effect on slowing growth. Also, have there been any reports of success in stopping growth homeopathically? Finally, for tumors smaller than 3cm, the standard treatment in the UK seems to be stereotactic surgery. However, in the US, surgical resection is much more common for tumors of all sizes. Why is that? Thank you for your time and expertise! Brian
Whilst there is no conclusive evidence of diet having a noted effect on Schwannomas / Neuromas, eating healthily is a good way to improve and maintain your wellbeing and quality of life. Although there is no current evidence, people may feel an overall positive benefit with taking this approach. With regards to the different international approaches to treatment, there are different medical methods for many conditions across the globe which often have roots in local medical tradition, approved practice, access to treatment modalities and treatment funding. Tumour size does define the medical approach taken with neuromas, with surgery often preferable for large lesions even if used primarily as a debulking step before radiosurgery. Radiosurgery in many nations is increasingly the treatment of choice for small to medium sized acoustic neuromas. Whilst tumour control rates following radiosurgery are comparable with those surgery, post-treatment complications and morbidity are often observed to be significantly less frequent with radiosurgery than those that can be encountered after surgery.
@@amethystukradiotherapy thank you very much for the thorough response. My VS is 11x5 mm contained in the auditory canal. I'm really leaning toward GK. But I also have a 5x6 suspected subependymoma in the 4th ventricle. Would that second tumor influence my choice of treatment of the VS at all?

may i know the difference between gamma and cyber knife please....Thank you so much!
Gamma Knife is used exclusively for the head, and uses a stereotactic frame or mask fitted to the patient’s head as a localiser. The treatment is delivered using 192 radiation beams from cobalt sources. Cyberknife uses a small high powered x-ray generating system (linear accelerator) on a robotic arm which can cover the whole body using image guidance. Both systems are very conformal to the tumour volume and can treat benign and malignant tumours. Gamma Knife treatment tends to be delivered in a single dose (fraction), whereas CyberKnife treatments are usually delivered in short cycles of 5 fractions or so, which is significantly less than treatments delivered with a standard radiotherapy linear accelerator.
