There are several factors that help determine a treatment plan (type, size, growth rate and location) and because of this, each patient's treatment is personalized by the WKNI Team. Your Neuroscience specialist will decide which treatment option(s) are best for you.

Surgery

With today's leaps in modern neuroscience, brain surgery has advanced significantly, resulting in better surgical outcomes. These advancements include:

Gliadel Wafers

Combining chemotherapy treatment and neurosurgery, these implantable devices are used during surgery and release powerful chemotherapy agents at the removed tumor site and kill any remaining cancer cells.

Gliasite Radiation Therapy System

The Gliasite Radiation Therapy System is an implanted radiation delivery device system containing a liquid radiation solution that is distributed directly to the tumor site.
