Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if using a form of imaging during surgery helps the doctors to guide the placement of radiation catheters more accurately.

This method, called "image-guided surgical navigation" may allow the doctors to deliver radiation to the tumor that the patient needs and decrease the amount of radiation delivered to the nearby areas.

Conditions

  • Metastatic or Recurrent Lesions in the Spine
  • Metastatic or Recurrent Lesions in the Pelvis

Interventions

RADIATION

Ir-192 high dose rate (HDR)

Patients will be followed at 2 months (+/- 2 weeks) post-treatment and then approximately every 3 months (+/- 2 weeks) until approximately 11 months of follow up. They will be evaluated for pain referable to the treated site, clinical and radiographic evidence of local progression, and treatment related toxicity. Thereafter, patients will be followed as clinically indicated.
