is calculated for the Linear Accelerator . You will then be transported to the Linear Accelerator, which will direct high doses of radiation from specific angles outside your head so that they converge on the target area. Surrounding tissues are for the most part spared.
The computer revolution and the availability of Linear Accelerators has made this form of treatment especially useful for vascular malformations, meningiomas, acoustic neuromas and some malignant brain tumors.
