AIMS: The aim of this paper is the drafting of a uniform protocol within our Complex Radiotherapy Structure for the execution of stereotaxic radiant treatment. METHODS: We collected the different personal experiences of the members of the Radiotherapy Team, with a review of the literature of articles concerning the stereotaxic technique, taking into account the indications provided by the Italian Society of Radiotherapy (AIRO). RESULTS: It was possible to outline a scheme divided by body district designed to homogenize and standardize the stereotactic radiant treatment within our department. CONCLUSIONS: This work has allowed us to obtain a better organization of the work in the preparation, execution and post-treatment reassessment regarding a technique recently introduced in our Department.
