Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) for early-stage lung cancer is becoming the standard of care. NovalisTM Radiosurgery software tools and accurate dose calculations allow for better targeting of tumors, while providing motion management for precise dose delivery. The lung gating technique pauses radiation delivery until the tumor is in the optimal position, sparing normal tissue.
