How do you approach deciding between SRS and fractionated radiation for an acoustic neuroma?

What factors do you consider? Size, symptoms, etc?

Offer fractionated RT if patient has serviceable hearing (can use the phone on that side). Otherwise SRS if less than 3 cm. If larger than 3 cm and not a surgical candidate, fractionated RT.
