Radiation can starts the moment surgery ends. đź§

New randomized Phase III data suggest that
@gammatile —radiation placed directly into the surgical cavity at the time a brain metastasis is removed—can improve local tumor control compared with surgery followed by stereotactic radiation.
-
For the right patient, it means we can combine surgery and radiation into a single procedure.
-
We have this technology available at Northwell, giving patients another option as brain metastasis treatment becomes increasingly personalized.
