heal.abstract	This paper describes the technique and preliminary results of high dose rate (HDR) interstitial brachytherapy for recurrent grade III and grade IV gliomas. Although in the initial treatment of malignant gliomas brachytherapy has been shown to give better results than external beam therapy, this has previously always been with low dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy. Stereotactic frames are used for interstitial	en
