PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·13d agoIs Proton Therapy Superior to Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Sporadic Vestibular Schwannoma?Audiologists counseling patients with vestibular schwannoma should be aware that the comparative effectiveness of proton therapy versus Gamma Knife is under active investigation; refer to neuro-otology or neurosurgery for treatment decisions until clearer evidence emerges.
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·3w agoFrameless gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery for over two hundred vestibular schwannoma patients - a single institution experienceNo direct change to audiology practice; audiologists managing vestibular schwannoma patients should be aware that frameless Gamma Knife radiosurgery shows high tumor control rates at a single centre, but single-institution retrospective data are insufficient to change referral...＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Research (general)·4w agoQuantifying the spatial information loss of Dose-Volume Histograms in Gamma Knife radiosurgery via unsupervised 3D dose geometry embeddingImproving the spatial accuracy of radiosurgery dose analysis could eventually reduce cochlear radiation exposure in acoustic neuroma treatment, with downstream implications for hearing preservation outcomes.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Clinical audiology·8w agoBeyond tumor control: symptom trajectories and hearing outcomes after contemporary Gamma Knife radiosurgery for vestibular schwannomaWhen counseling vestibular schwannoma patients considering Gamma Knife radiosurgery, audiologists and neurotologists should present long-term symptom trajectory data—not just tumor control rates—because hearing preservation outcomes vary and some symptom patterns worsen over...＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·AI & technology·8w agoTherapeutic Hybrid Intelligence with Neural and Knowledge-based Expert Reasoning for SRS (THINKERS): a mixture-of-experts AI model for vestibular schwannomaNo immediate change to clinical audiology practice; THINKERS is a research-stage AI tool for neurosurgical outcome prediction in vestibular schwannoma and requires prospective validation before clinical adoption.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·2mo agoDoes semicircular canal radiation increase the risk of new vestibulopathy after Gamma Knife radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma?Radiation oncologists and neurosurgeons performing Gamma Knife radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma should consider semicircular canal dose as a potentially modifiable risk factor for post-treatment vestibulopathy, pending broader validation of dose thresholds.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·3mo agoLong-term outcomes of Gamma Knife surgery for vestibular schwannomas: tumor stability supports reduced surveillance after 10 yearsClinicians co-managing vestibular schwannoma patients treated with Gamma Knife radiosurgery may reasonably discuss reduced MRI surveillance frequency with neurosurgery after 10 years of documented tumor stability, pending institutional protocol updates.＋Save
