Oligometastatic Disease & Metastasis-Directed Therapy (MDT)
Oligometastatic disease refers to a cancer state where disease has spread to a limited number of sites but has not yet become widespread.
Highly Precise – Non-Invasive – Non-Surgical – No Anesthesia – 1 to 5 Outpatient Visits
Capital Radiosurgery Centers (CRC) provides highly precise, non-invasive treatment for oligometastatic cancer using advanced radiation technologies such as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), and intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Treatment is carefully planned based on clinical appropriateness and delivered by experienced, board-certified radiation oncology professionals and a fully integrated care team.
These therapies precisely target metastatic tumors located in the spine, lung, bone, brain, or other areas of the body while minimizing exposure to healthy tissue. Care is delivered in an independent outpatient setting, allowing patients to receive advanced cancer treatment close to home without surgery or hospitalization.
The Facts That Matter
What the Clinical Evidence Shows
- Large randomized trials (such as STAMPEDE) have demonstrated that radiation to the primary tumor can improve overall survival in patients with low-volume metastatic prostate cancer
- These findings support the concept that local treatment matters in selected metastatic settings
- While randomized trials specifically evaluating SBRT to synchronous oligometastatic sites are still evolving, MDT is increasingly used in practice based on: Favorable disease control, low toxicity, and the ability to delay escalation of systemic therapy
Patient Experience & Quality of Life
- Targeted treatment of known metastatic sites
- High local control of treated lesions
- Low risk of long-term effects
- Preservation of quality of life
- Potential delay in disease progression or added systemic therapy
Treatment Duration
- Up to 5 visits: 1-week or less
- Traditional Radiation: several weeks
Treatment Duration & Conditions Commonly Treated
High-does radiation with sub-millimeter accuracy; 1-5 visits: 1-week or less
- Prostate cancer with limited metastatic spread – 3-5 visits
- Lung cancer oligometastases – 3-5 visits
- Bone or spine metastases – 1-5 visits
- Other solid tumors with limited metastatic burden
- Lymph node–only metastatic disease
What to Expect
Before Treatment
• Consultation
• Imaging Review (CT + PET Scan)
• Personalized Treatment Planning
During Treatment
• Painless, non-invasive sessions
• Typically, 1-5 visits, up to 1 week
After Treatment
• No recovery downtime
• Follow-up imaging to monitor response to treatment
• Ongoing coordination with your care team
Guideline Supported Care
Treatment planning follows nationally recognized clinical guidelines (including ASTRO and NCCN, where applicable). Final treatment decisions are made by the treating physician based on each patient’s unique clinical situation.

What Is IMRT?
IMRT delivers precisely shaped radiation doses that conform to a tumor’s three-dimensional shape while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. IMRT is commonly used when tumors are near critical structures or require a high degree of dose precision—protecting healthy tissue and helping patients maintain their daily routines.

Fewer Treatments
Treatment is typically completed in 1–5 sessions.
Minimized Side Effects
Precision targeting reduces damage to healthy tissue.
Proven Outcomes
Long-term cancer control supported by extensive clinical research.
Faster Return to Life
Most patients resume normal activities immediately.
