Intracranial intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT): evaluation of electrocorticography and peri-operative seizure risk

ConclusionsIORT is an option for delivery of definitive radiation in surgically resected brain tumors without increasing the peri-operative or long-term risk of seizure. ECoG data during the delivery of radiation fail to demonstrate any electrophysiological changes in response to ionizing radiation.
