With advancements in medical technology, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has become an essential option for treating benign intracranial tumors. Due to its minimal side effects and high local control rate, SRS is widely applied. This paper evaluates the plan quality and secondary cancer risk (SCR) in patients with benign intracranial tumors treated with the CyberKnife M6 system. The CyberKnife M6 robotic radiosurgery system features both multileaf collimator (MLC) and IRIS variable aperture collimator systems, providing different treatment options. The study included 15 patients treated with the CyberKnife M6 system, examining the differences in plan quality and SCR between MLC and IRIS systems. Results showed that MLC and IRIS plans had equal PTV (planning target volume) coverage (98.57% vs. 98.75%). However, MLC plans demonstrated better dose falloff and conformity index (CI: 1.81 ± 0.26 vs. 1.92 ± 0.27, P = 0.025). SCR assessment indicated that MLC plans had lower cancer risk estimates, with IRIS plans having average LAR (lifetime attributable risk) and EAR (excess absolute risk) values approximately 25% higher for cancer induction and 15% higher for sarcoma induction compared to MLC plans. The study showed that increasing tumor volume increases SCR probability, but there was no significant difference between different plans in PTV and brainstem analyses. |
