Popis: Treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma is an urgent problem of modern oncology. Despite the possibility of using various methods of local and systemic exposure and their continuous improvement, the results of treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in general remain unsatisfactory. Modern radiation therapy can be considered as one of the significant methods of local exposure due to relative efficacy and acceptable tolerability. Implementation of radiation treatment in the mode of stereotactic radiotherapy is a promising direction in the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma because of the possibility of applying ablative doses with a significant restriction of doses to healthy organs and tissues in a short period of time and the possibilities of combining this method with other variants of specific treatment.
