About
Stephen Seiler is a radiation oncologist whose research has focused on advancing stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) techniques for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer, particularly through partial breast irradiation (PBI). His most significant contributions center on pioneering and refining stereotactic partial breast irradiation (S-PBI) as a precise, accelerated alternative to conventional whole-breast radiation following lumpectomy. Seiler has led and contributed to innovative phase 1 dose-escalation trials exploring both 5-fraction and single-fraction S-PBI protocols using robotic stereotactic radiation systems, with his 2017 preliminary results paper earning 66 citations and establishing foundational evidence in this emerging treatment paradigm. His work spans critical aspects of clinical implementation, including the development of ultrasound-guided gold fiducial marker placement techniques to improve targeting accuracy, as well as systematic evaluation of cosmetic outcomes to ensure quality of life alongside efficacy. By expanding these investigations into prospective multicenter trials, Seiler has helped validate S-PBI's feasibility and safety across diverse patient populations. His body of work collectively advances the goal of delivering effective, convenient, and well-tolerated radiation therapy to women with early-stage breast cancer.
