    "description": "Delivery of one session of stereotactic body radiation therapy - a very high dose of precisely aimed radiation to a tumor outside the brain, given in a small number of sessions instead of weeks of daily treatment. Imaging is done at the time of treatment to confirm the target is exactly where the plan expects before the beam is turned on, and that image guidance is part of this service. One unit covers a single session, and a full SBRT course is typically limited to a handful of them; it may treat more than one lesion in the same session.",
