While outcomes have been described in small studies, histological findings after SBRT for VT are unknown. We identified 4 explanted hearts in the context of transplant that received prior SBRT as part of an 11-patient compassionate use series at our institution. Clinical VTs and computed tomography-defined target volume areas of SBRT were correlated to the anatomic specimens. Gross pathological, histological, and ultrastructural examination of tissue in the target area of SBRT was performed. All 4 patients had nonischemic cardiomyopathy, and 3 had left ventricular assist devices. In all cases, patients had recurrent sustained VT and had failed multiple antiarrhythmics and radiofrequency ablations. Four patients underwent 5 total SBRT therapy sessions with 25-Gy single-fraction dose delivered to the area of culprit scar. The time from SBRT to explant ranged from 12 to 250 days. Histopathologic feaffect before the onset of fibrosis. Here, we report the first series of findings in human tissue in 4 patients after SBRT. Histopathologic features were consistent across all 4 patients and were indicative of cell injury, death, and to a lesser extent, fibrosis. Electron microscopy demonstrated features consistent with acute injury. These specimens provide radiobiological mechanisms of acute cellular injury during SBRT for VT, which may have an antiarrhythmic effect before the onset of fibrosis.Dementia-friendly communities (DFCs) are one way in which people living with dementia can be supported to be active, engaged and valued citizens. Quantitative evaluations of the experiences of those with dementia living within these communities are scarce. This article reports findings from a survey of people living with dementia on their experience of living in a DFC. Two-hundred and forty people living with dementia co
