Mashup Score: 0Gamma Knife Radiosurgery does not alter the copy number aberration profile in sporadic vestibular schwannoma - 4 year(s) ago
Ionizing radiation is a known etiologic factor in tumorigenesis and its role in inducing malignancy in the treatment of vestibular schwannoma has been debated. The purpose of this study was to identify a copy number aberration (CNA) profile or specific CNAs associated with radiation exposure which could either implicate an increased risk of malignancy or elucidate a mechanism of treatment…
