The uptake of stereotactic ablative body radiation therapy (SABR)/stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) worldwide has been rapid. The Australian and New Zealand Faculty of Radiation Oncology (FRO) assembled an expert panel of radiation oncologists, radiation oncology medical physicists and radiation therapists to establish guidelines for safe practice of SABR. Draft guidelines were reviewed by a number of international experts in the field and then distributed through the membership of the FRO. Members of the Australian Institute of Radiography and the Australasian College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine were also asked to comment on the draft. Evidence-based recommendations (where applicable) address aspects of departmental staffing, procedures and equipment, quality assurance measures, as well as organisational considerations for delivery of SABR treatments. Central to the guidelines is a set of key recommendations for departments undertaking SABR. These guidelines were developed collaboratively to provide an educational guide and reference for radiation therapy service providers to ensure appropriate care of patients receiving SABR.
立体定向消融体部放射治疗(SABR)/立体定向体部放射治疗(SBRT)在全球范围内的应用发展迅速。澳大利亚和新西兰放射肿瘤学学会(FRO)组建了一个由放射肿瘤学家、放射肿瘤医学物理学家和放射治疗师组成的专家小组,以制定SABR安全操作指南。指南草案由该领域的多位国际专家进行了审查,然后分发给FRO的成员。澳大利亚放射学会以及澳大利亚物理科学家与医学工程师学会的成员也被邀请对草案发表意见。基于证据的建议(如适用)涉及部门人员配备、程序与设备、质量保证措施以及SABR治疗实施的组织考量等方面。该指南的核心是针对开展SABR的部门提出的一系列关键建议。这些指南通过合作制定,旨在为放射治疗服务提供者提供一份教育指南和参考资料,以确保对接受SABR治疗的患者给予恰当护理。
