Tumor volume at stereotactic brachytherapy (SBT) was significantly associated with radiation necrosis-free survival (RNFS) (a) (> 6.3ccm, p = 0.028). Furthermore, irradiation time of SBT (b) (> 572 h, p < 0.001), the number of implanted seeds (c) (p < 0.001), and initial SBT before salvage EBRT (d) (p = 0.026) were significant risk factors for occurrence of radiation necrosis
