Abstract		Radiotherapy has long been used in conjunction with classical neurosurgery as a treatment option for benign and malignant tumours, as well as for intracranial lesions. The three possible modalities include fractionated radiotherapy, stereotactic radiotherapy and radiosurgery, the latter employing a gamma knife unit and a linear accelerator system. Radiosurgery is also increasingly applied in combination with systemic therapy for the treatment of metastatic disease.
Summary		Poleg nevrokirurških tehnik se radioterapija že dolgo uporablja za zdravljenje malignih in benignih znotrajlobanjskih tumorjev ter drugih znotrajlobanjskih sprememb. Znotrajlobanjske tumorje obsevamo na tri načine: s frakcionirano radioterapijo, stereotaktično radioterapijo in stereotaktično radiokirurgijo, slednje najpogosteje z uporabo gama noža ali posebej prirejenega linearnega pospeševalnika. Radiokirurgija se vse bolj uporablja tudi v kombinaciji s sistemsko terapijo pri zdravljenju zasevkov.
