I was told no radiation therapy will shrink or destroy the tumor. That they could only say it should stop its growth for a period of time.

I had my procedure at university of Pa. My surgeon told me that either it would stop the tumor from progressing. It may shrink or go away, but, it could take years. The whole idea is to keep it from growing. My tumor was a little calcified also which was a plus.
