WBR

Is there any reason to use WBR when trials show NO survival benefit by adding it to SRS :

  1. so these slides are only about adding WBRT to SRS or WBRT as adjuvenal therapy as whole?

  2. They talked about both - the trial adding SRS and WMRT together showed no efficacy advantage and considerable side effects and in the adjuvant setting the benefit didn't outplay the side effects - in all apart from in the case of numerous disseminated lesions they weren't very keen on it at all.
