About Dr. Li
Jing, Li, M.D., Ph.D., is a Professor of Radiation Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. She currently serves as Chief of the CNS/Pediatric section, Director of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery, and Co-Director of the Brain Metastasis Clinic. Dr. Li specializes in the treatment of primary and metastatic CNS malignancies in adult patients. She is passionate about refining radiation treatment and developing multidisciplinary care for patients with brain metastases, with the goal of preserving or improving cognitive outcomes and quality of life for these patients. She has been leading trials investigating the use of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) (vs whole-brain radiation therapy [WBRT]) for patients with up to 15 brain metastases, and trials investigating he concurrent use of brain SRS (or WBRT) in combination with immunotherapy.
Her interest in improving outcomes for patients with brain metastases has extended to managing side effects from SRS, including the accurate diagnosis of radiation necrosis vs tumor progression by using advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging techniques, and the development of algorithms and new treatment strategies to better manage radiation necrosis, especially in the setting of immunotherapy. Dr. Li is also an expert on spinal SRS (SSRS). With her colleagues in neurosurgery, she has successfully pioneered the combination use of SSRS and laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) for treatment of spine metastases with moderate epidural disease, with the goal of providing an effective treatment for these patients who would otherwise have to undergo resection or spinal SRS treatment alone, which is often of limited efficacy due to close proximity of the tumor to the spinal cord.
