In general I go to a higher dose for a secreting pituitary tumor than nonsecreting tumor. I try to go as high as I safely can while respecting optic nerve and chiasm tolerance.

After central debulking, would you use SRS for a 1 cm residual GH-secreting adenoma in the cavernous sinus and along internal carotid artery? If so, what dose? What would you estimate risks of cranial neuropathy or vasc injury with SRS?
