Should Brachytherapy Play A Key Role in the Treatment of Adult Malignant Brain Tumors?

Opinion Piece:
Yes. Brachytherapy for the treatment of intracranial malignancies holds tremendous promise for optimal management of these frequently complex patients. – Drs. Weinberg and Beckham
No. The role of brachytherapy for malignant gliomas has been well investigated and found to confer no survival benefit for patients when combined with best surgical resection and standard external radiotherapy. – Dr. Barnett

CS-131 for Operable Intracranial Neoplasms

Dr. Kotecha: Radiation therapy can be delivered to the brain externally through machines, which is called external beam radiation therapy. This is the most common approach or use in radiation therapy and some terms that you may hear that are using this type of treatment are stereotactic radiosurgery. An alternative means of delivering radiation therapy is when radiation is actually implanted into the brain itself, and that is called brachytherapy.
