90 % of patients achieved tumor-volume reduction at 1.17 years post-treatment, reaching a non-zero asymptote strongly correlated with initial tumor volume, and 75 % experienced at least a 50 % volume decrease. Individual volume changes for responsive meningiomas can be modeled and predicted using exponential decay curves.
