“GammaTile treatment for newly diagnosed brain tumors is a significant step forward for patients and an example of the benefits that focused neurosurgical research and clinical innovation can provide,” said Dr. Vincent DiNapoli, a neurosurgeon at Mayfield Brain & Spine. “The targeted radiation delivered by GammaTile will help save lives and set the stage for further groundbreaking advances against brain tumors.”

GammaTile is an innovative form of radiation therapy placed at the time of tumor removal surgery, delivering immediate, targeted radiation to the tumor site when cancer cells are at their lowest levels. Unlike conventional approaches, which often require a delay between surgery and radiation therapy to allow for wound healing, GammaTile eliminates this treatment gap. By delivering immediate, localized radiation directly at the tumor site, it is designed to maximize the treatment’s effectiveness against remaining cancer cells and reduce the risk of regrowth.
