Zusammenfassung:Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for inoperable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) offers excellent local control rates. This study retrospectively analyzed the influence of different tumor size on treatment outcomes after SBRT.Between December 2008 and February 2014, 141 HCC patients were treated with Cyberknife SBRT. Patients were divided into 3 groups namely small tumors (≤4 cm), intermediate-sized (>4-
