About
Shikha Goyal is a radiation oncologist whose research spans stereotactic radiosurgery, rare genitourinary tumors, and innovative radiotherapy applications for metastatic disease. Her most influential work analyzes intrafraction motion during CyberKnife-based stereotaxy using mask immobilization and 6D-skull tracking—a study with 12 citations that has helped refine frameless stereotactic radiosurgery protocols for intracranial targets. Goyal has also contributed to the literature on solitary fibrous tumors of the seminal vesicle, a rare mesenchymal neoplasm, and explored the role of portal vein tumor thrombus irradiation as a bridge to liver transplantation. Her preliminary report on CyberKnife fractionated radiotherapy for adrenal metastases, published in 2014, demonstrated early evidence that stereotactic body radiotherapy can achieve durable disease control beyond simple palliation. With a research portfolio that bridges technical motion management and challenging clinical scenarios, Goyal’s work supports the safe expansion of stereotactic techniques to both cranial and extracranial sites, offering patients non-invasive treatment options for complex oncologic presentations.
