Frequently Asked Questions

Which hospitals in the UK provide stereotactic radiation?

Specialised centres provide SRT all across the United Kingdom. SABR/SBRT for extracranial sites is available at many regional cancer centers.

Stereotactic radiotherapy is administered by whom?

Stereotactic treatments are managed by a multidisciplinary team that includes physicists, dosimetrists, specialised radiographers, and clinical oncologists. Clinical oncologists lead planning and delivery with subspecialty training, such as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS).

Can I pick a particular consultant or centre?

Yes, with the help of your GP or MDT, Patient Choice permits referrals to centers of expertise. It is possible for private self-referrals. When making a decision, consider factors such as equipment, wait times, and travel.

What credentials ought to be on the team?

Clinicians should have experience with IGRT/SRS and be trained at the consultant level. Members of the MDT and physicists must complete UK Consortium training and obtain IPEM certification.

Do I qualify for stereotactic radiation treatment?

If you have small primary tumors (less than 3 cm intracranial, less than 5 cm body), oligometastatic disease, limited brain metastases, or recurrence in previously irradiated beds, you might be eligible. Size, location, lung function, organ motion, and performance status are all reviewed by the MDT.

Are there waiting lists for stereotactic radiotherapy at hospitals?

Yes, especially at high-demand centers, hospitals may have short wait times for planning and treatment slots, usually ranging from two to four weeks. Priority is given to urgent cases, such as brain metastases. Treatment at private hospitals is frequently available in a matter of days. During your consultation or at the point of referral, inquire about the current wait time.

Can I select a particular oncologist for stereotactic radiotherapy?

Yes, patients in the UK often have the option to choose their consultant oncologist based on their hospital affiliation or area of expertise.Numerous hospitals have online consultant directories that list subspecialties such as brain SRS or lung SABR. Some of the doctors are:

Can a stereotactic center and my local hospital work together?

Indeed, shared care models are made possible by the referral pathways that many nearby hospitals have to regional SRS/SABR hubs. Before planning at the stereotactic centre, your diagnostic work-up (CT, MRI, biopsy) may be completed locally. By working with several trusts.

Are all oncologists trained in stereotactic?

No, stereotactic radiotherapy is a subspecialty that calls for further education in small-field dosimetry, immobilisation, and advanced imaging. For various tumor sites, UK hospitals typically assign specialised stereotactic oncologists. Ensure your consultant has experience handling a substantial volume of comparable SRS/SABR cases.
