SRS — Stereotactic Radiosurgery.

The focused, high-precision principle of stereotactic radiation applied to small targets in the brain — delivered in one or a few sessions, with no surgical incision.

Despite the name, SRS involves no scalpel: it is radiation so precisely focused that it acts like surgery on a small intracranial target.

What it is

SRS concentrates many converging beams onto a small, well-defined target in the brain, delivering a high dose to it while the dose to surrounding brain falls off sharply. It is completed in one or a few sessions.

Where it helps

  • Brain metastases
  • Certain benign tumours and lesions
  • Small, well-defined intracranial targets

What to expect

Treatment relies on precise immobilisation and imaging. Dr. Bhatnagar will explain whether the size and location of your lesion make SRS appropriate, and how the session is carried out.

For Dr. Bhatnagar's review: this clinical description is drafted as patient-education content and should be confirmed before launch.
