First of all, I am just a parent, not a medical professional. When
my son was diagnosed, the research I did indicated that the best
chance for success came from chemo and surgical removal of the tumor.
Radiation was primarly used if the tumor couldn't be removed
completely. I would ask why only radiation and not chemo and
surgery. There may be a good reason, but from what little I know,
radiation only is not a very typical treatment. Good luck.
