What GammaTile does
GT Medical Technologies, Inc., operating as GammaTile, is a privately held medical device company headquartered in Tempe, Arizona that develops and commercializes GammaTile, the first and only FDA-cleared tile-based radiation therapy (TBRT) for operable brain tumors. The product is a bioresorbable collagen tile embedded with four cesium-131 (Cs-131) radioactive seeds that is implanted at the time of brain tumor resection surgery, delivering approximately 88% of its therapeutic radiation dose within 30 days and eliminating the typical 2-8 week post-operative delay associated with external beam radiation therapy. The company was founded in the early 2010s by five brain tumor specialists (Brachman, McBride, Nakaji, Youssef, and Thomas) and achieved full U.S. market launch in March 2020 after FDA clearance for newly diagnosed malignant intracranial neoplasms and recurrent intracranial neoplasms, including glioblastoma, brain metastases, and recurrent meningiomas.
The technology's distinguishing features include uniform source spacing within the collagen matrix for predictable dosimetry, a 3mm offset between seeds and the tile surface to protect healthy brain tissue, a cesium-131 half-life of 9.7 days, and bioresorbability that eliminates the need for surgical removal. Clinical evidence supporting the device includes peer-reviewed local control rates of 80-100% at 12 months across indications, a 0% reoperation rate for GammaTile-related radiation necrosis, and positive Phase 3 ROADS RCT results presented at ASCO 2026 demonstrating superior tumor control and overall survival compared to post-surgical stereotactic radiotherapy for newly diagnosed brain metastases. The company runs an active clinical development program spanning the ROADS, GESTALT, and BRIDGES trials with leading academic centers including MD Anderson and Memorial Sloan Kettering.
GammaTile generates revenue through direct hardware sales of the medical device to hospitals and cancer centers performing brain tumor resection, billed under Medicare MS-DRG 023 and Revenue Code 0278. The commercial motion is enterprise field sales targeting neurosurgeons and radiation oncologists at academic medical centers, supported by a dedicated ordering portal, medical affairs proctoring, and reimbursement consulting. The company operates a Centers of Excellence program with 20+ designated sites across the United States and has treated 2,000+ patients cumulatively as of August 2025. Through 2025-2026 the company completed a $53M Series D and an oversubscribed $100M Series E financing to fund continued commercial expansion.

GammaTile product offering
Product offeringCore offering
GammaTile is a surgically implantable, bioresorbable collagen tile embedded with four cesium-131 (Cs-131) radioactive seeds that is placed at the time of brain tumor resection surgery to deliver targeted, immediate radiation therapy directly to the tumor cavity. The product is FDA-cleared for newly diagnosed malignant intracranial neoplasms and recurrent intracranial neoplasms, eliminating the traditional 2-8 week post-operative external beam radiation delay. It is sold as a medical device directly to hospitals, academic medical centers, and cancer treatment centers across the United States.
Product overview
GammaTile is a single FDA-cleared medical device product — a surgically implantable, bioabsorbable tile-based radiation therapy. The GammaTile product consists of bioresorbable collagen tiles embedded with four cesium-131 (Cs-131) radiation seeds each. Tiles are placed at the time of tumor resection surgery and deliver targeted radiation directly to the tumor cavity. The company also offers supporting services including a GammaTile Ordering Portal, Cavity Surface Area Calculator for tile estimation, Lookup Tables, a Centers of Excellence program for treatment centers, coding and reimbursement guidance, and a GammaTile Commitment Pledge for recurrent tumors. GT Medical Technologies, the parent company, develops this single product focus along with clinical trial programs (ROADS, GESTALT, BRIDGES) and a patient registry.
