Re: Optimum Treatment After Resection of Brain Met
Hi there, did they say why the plan changed It does seem strange to me that you have not yet visited the rad onc or started the radiation planning. My understanding is that there is an optimal window (I think within 6 weeks, but I am not sure) to start radiation after surgery. I would be inclined to push to have the appointment right away so that you can discuss the change and whether WBR is really the ideal way forward. I think that the newest school of thought argues for surgery followered by SRS if the number of lesions is small. Sorry to hear you are having these hassles when you are already dealing with such a challenging situation.
