Abstract

Here we discuss the low risk of radiation-related complications after Leksell radiosurgery, as well as its diagnosis and management. Using multimodality imaging in the context of clinical suspicion of radiation injury clinicians can now start management with agents designed to reduce the progression of radiation vasculopathy. In more severe cases both medical and surgical management options can be offered.
