Propensity score-matched analysis comparing hippocampus-avoidance whole-brain radiotherapy plus simultaneous integrated boost with hippocampus‑avoidance whole-brain radiotherapy alone for multiple brain metastases-a retrospective study in multiple institutions

Abstract Background The optimal treatment for multiple brain metastases has been recently controversially discussed.This study was aimed to explore the feasibility of Hippocampus-Avoidance Whole-Brain Radiotherapy plus a simultaneous integrated boost (HA-WBRT + SIB) in patients with multiple brain m...
