Lung SBRT

Your doctor has decided to treat your lung tumour with stereotactic body radiation therapy or SBRT.

What is SBRT?

SBRT is a type of radiation therapy treatment that gives a high dose of radiation in a small number of treatments, usually in five or less sessions.

Your doctor will talk with you about your treatment, including possible side effects. You will be asked to sign a consent form for treatment, which the doctor will go over with you. 

Please talk to your treatment team about your medications at each appointment.
