17 Management of grade 1 Meningioma Phase III trial assessing the impact of radiation therapy on tumor control and QoL for patients with non-gross total resection (Simpson 3) as documented on MRI performed 1 month postoperatively. Targeted sample size of 478 patients was calculated and the protocol was activated in Weber DC, Curr Opinion Neurol 2010;23:563-79
