EuropacePublished

  • Clinical consensus statement

Recommendations

As issued by the authors

  1. Provides uniform definition of cardiac target volumes

  2. Advice on patient selection for stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation (STAR), including aetiology-specific aspects

  3. Advice on optimal cardiac target volume identification based on available evidence

  4. Covers safety concerns and acute and long-term monitoring, including standardized reporting and follow-up

  5. Lists areas of uncertainty requiring high-quality pre-clinical and clinical evidence before expanding STAR beyond scenarios where proven therapies are ineffective or unavailable
