Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Guided Online Adaptive Lattice Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy in Voluminous Liver Metastasis: Two Case Reports.

Lattice Radiotherapy (LRT) is a technique in which heterogeneous doses are delivered to the target so large tumors can have optimal doses of radiation without compromising healthy tissue sparing. To date, case reports and case series documented its application for bulky tumors mainly in the pelvic region. LRT not only provides dosimetric advantages but also promotes tumor control by triggering some radiobiological and immunological pathways. We report two cases of giant liver metastases for whom other treatment options were not suitable. We treated both patients with Magnetic Resonance Image-Guided Radiotherapy (MRgRT) with online adaptive LRT (OALRT) technique. Adaptive plans were generated before each fraction. Tumors were observed to have regressed interfractionally so the location and number of spheres were adapted to tumor size and daily anatomy of the surrounding organs at risk (OAR). Both patients had good treatment compliance without any Grade 3+ side effects. They are both under follow-up and report improvement. By reporting the first application of OALRT by using MRgRT in liver metastases, we show that MRgRT is a promising modality for LRT technique with better target and OAR visualization as well as online adaptive planning before each fraction according to the daily anatomy of the patient.
