Optic Nerve Sheath Meningioma; Three-Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy |
Description |
The treatment of optic nerve sheath meningioma is controversial, but includes observation, radiation therapy, and surgery. Conformal three-dimensional radiotherapy is a technique that allows delivery of radiation to a precise tumor shape and density. This maximizes radiation delivery to the tumor and minimizes exposure to adjacent tissue. |
