About

Fabiola Paiar is a radiation oncologist whose work centers on stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and its application to challenging anatomical sites, including cardiac malignancies and abdominal lymph node metastases. Her research has been instrumental in demonstrating the feasibility and clinical promise of SBRT for primary and secondary cardiac tumors, a domain traditionally limited by radiobiological and technical constraints. Her 2015 study on CyberKnife-based SBRT for cardiac malignancies (23 citations) provided early evidence that focused, high-dose radiation could be safely delivered to the heart, opening new avenues for non-invasive treatment. In 2013, she reported on SBRT for abdominal lymph node metastases (17 citations), showing effective local control across various primary cancers. More recently, Paiar has contributed to comparative outcomes research in HPV-mediated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, evaluating upfront trans-oral robotic surgery versus radiotherapy. Her work consistently bridges technological innovation with patient-centered endpoints, including quality of life. With a career spanning over a decade, Paiar has helped expand the therapeutic reach of SBRT into historically radioresistant or high-risk sites, influencing both clinical practice and future trial design.
