Al's Comment:

 This is a new type of radiation therapy which is implanted at the time of surgery. It is made up of biodegradable wafers. It has FDA clearance so it can be used now.  The current article talks about using it for recurrent meningiomas, but it can also be used for any primary or metastatic recurrent brain tumors.  Interesting concept. Check their website for more details.
