Data regarding adverse effects, outcomes, and survival times were obtained from the medical records.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>RESULTS<\/jats:bold> The median survival time to death due to any cause was 388 days. Of the 24 dogs known to be dead, 14 (58%) died or were euthanized because of local disease progression. Acute radiation-induced adverse effects developed in the skin (excluding alopecia) in 26% (6\/23) of dogs and in the oral cavity in 30% (7\/23) of dogs. Acute ocular adverse effects included discharge in 26% (6\/23) of dogs and keratoconjunctivitis sicca in 4% (1\/23) of dogs. Among the 22 dogs alive at &gt; 6 months after SBRT, 4 (18%) developed a unilateral cataract; 4 (18%) developed other complications that may have been late-onset radiation toxicoses (excluding leukotrichia and skin hyperpigmentation).<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE<\/jats:bold> Results indicated that dogs treated with SBRT had outcomes comparable to those reported for dogs with nasal carcinomas and sarcomas that undergo conventionally fractionated radiation therapy. Administration of SBRT was associated with a comparatively lower frequency of acute radiation-induced adverse effects. For SBRT and conventionally fractionated radiation therapy, the frequencies of serious late-onset adverse effects appear similar.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.254.5.602","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,19]],"date-time":"2019-02-19T17:11:00Z","timestamp":1550596260000},"page":"602-612","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Outcomes and adverse effects associated with stereotactic body radiation therapy in dogs with nasal tumors: 28 cases (2011\u20132016)"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"254","author":[{"given":"Monique N.","family":"Mayer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jordyn O.","family":"DeWalt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Narinder","family":"Sidhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G.
