Abstract

โรค medulloblastoma เป็นโรคมะเร็งในสมองที่พบมากเป็นอันดับหนึ่งในกลุ่มผู้ป่วยเด็กและวัยรุ่น โดยการรักษาหลัก จะเป็นการรักษาร่วมทั้ง การผ่าตัด การฉายรังสี และยาเคมีบำบัด การฉายรังสีมีบทบาทสำคัญเพื่อเพิ่มอัตราการรอดชีวิต และลดการกลับมาเป็นซํ้าของโรค ขอบเขตการฉายรังสีจะเป็นลักษณะ craniospinal axis (CSI) เนื่องจากพบการแพร่กระจายไปตาม subarachnoid space ได้บ่อย อย่างไรก็ตามต้องระวังผลข้างเคียงจากการฉายรังสี จึงมีการศึกษาพัฒนาวิธีการรักษาและเทคนิคการฉายรังสี เช่น การลดปริมาณรังสีโดยให้ร่วมกับยาเคมีบำบัด รวมถึงการฉายรังสี multiple field หรือการฉายรังสีโปรตอนเพื่อลดผลข้างเคียงที่อาจเกิดขึ้น
