Conditions We Treat with SABR

Find SABR Treatment for
Your Type of Cancer

SABR radiotherapy is used to treat carefully selected primary tumours and secondary cancers with a high degree of precision. For patients whose cancer is limited to a small number of sites, it may provide an active, non-surgical treatment option designed to control visible disease while protecting surrounding healthy tissue.

Our specialist team assesses every case in the context of your scans, cancer type, previous treatment and overall treatment plan. We consider SABR radiotherapy in the UK for people seeking treatment for a primary cancer, limited metastatic disease, or one or two areas of cancer progressing while other treatment continues to work.

Precise Cancer treatment

CT, PET and MRI scans are used to define the tumour’s size and location before the treatment.

Outpatient Appointments

There are no incisions, no operation and usually no overnight hospital stay.

Short Treatment Course

Each session typically lasts from around 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment plan.

Cancer Types treated with SABR

SABR Radiotherapy for Different Cancer Types

If you have been told your cancer has spread, you may feel that your options are narrowing. Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy is one option we can consider, and for some patients, it can treat tumours directly, even when the cancer has spread to more than one place.

Not everyone will be suitable for SABR, and we will always be honest with you about what it can and cannot do. But if you are wondering whether there is still something more to explore, take a look at the cancer types below. It is a starting point for understanding whether this treatment could be part of your path forward.

Lung cancer

Precise, non-surgical treatment for early-stage lung cancer and lung metastases, completed in as few as five sessions.

Prostate cancer

Treats primary prostate cancer and metastatic spread with curative intent, without surgery or prolonged treatment courses.

Liver Cancer

Targets primary liver tumours and metastases with millimetre accuracy, including where surgery is not a safe option.

Kidney Cancer

A targeted option for primary kidney cancer and metastatic renal cell carcinoma, including for patients with a solitary kidney.

Colon cancer

Treats primary colorectal/bowel/colon cancer and metastatic spread with precision and minimal side effects.

Pancreatic cancer

A precisely targeted treatment for locally advanced or inoperable pancreatic cancer, where surgery is not possible.

Spinal Metastases

Treats cancer that has spread to the spine with pinpoint accuracy, protecting the surrounding nerves and healthy tissue.

Bone Metastases

Targeted treatment for cancer that has spread to the bones, helping to control disease and preserve quality of life.

Adrenal Metastases

Reaches adrenal metastases with precision, treating a location that surgery often cannot safely access.

Brain Metastases

A highly focused dose delivered to brain metastases with millimetre accuracy, preserving the surrounding healthy brain tissue.

Lymph Metastases
