AB  - Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) is an emerging effective treatment for 
      hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with acceptable rates of toxicity in 
      appropriately selected patients. Despite often being reserved for patients 
      unsuitable for other local treatments, prospective and retrospective studies have 
      demonstrated excellent long-term control. SBRT may be used as a stand-alone 
      treatment, or as an adjunct to other HCC therapies. Based on available data, SBRT 
      appears to complement existing local liver therapies. Randomized and 
      nonrandomized comparative studies are required to better determine the optimal 
      role of SBRT in HCC treatment.
