A radiosurgery system is described that is configured to deliver a
therapeutic dose of radiation to a target structure in a patient. In some
embodiments, inflammatory ocular disorders are treated, specifically
macular degeneration. In some embodiments, other disorders or tissues of
a body are treated with the dose of radiation. In some embodiments, the
target tissues are placed in a global coordinate system based on ocular
imaging. In some embodiments, the target tissues inside the global
coordinate system lead to direction of an automated positioning system
that is directed based on the target tissues within the coordinate
system. In some embodiments, a treatment plan is utilised in which beam
energy and direction and duration of time for treatment is determined for
a specific disease to be treated and/or structures to be avoided. In some
embodiments, a fiducial marker is used to identify the location of the
target tissues. In some embodiments, radiodynamic therapy is described in
which radiosurgery is used in combination with other treatments and can
be delivered concomitant with, prior to, or following other treatments.
