Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age >= 18 years

- Planned neurosurgical resection of tumor
- Judged to not be at risk of significant clinical risk (i.e. herniation) with radiation-induced edema prior to resection
- No prior history of cranial radiotherapy
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) =< 2
- Negative pregnancy test done =< 14 days prior to registration, for women of childbearing potential only
- Ability to complete questionnaire(s) by themselves or with assistance
- Provide written informed consent
- Planning to receive adjuvant radiotherapy at enrolling institution
- Willing to provide tissue and/or blood samples for correlative research purposes
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1.5 x 10^9/L (obtained =< 14 days prior to starting treatment)
- Platelet count >= 80,000/mm^3 (80 x 10^9/L) (obtained =< 14 days prior to starting treatment)
- Hemoglobin (Hgb) >= 9 g/dL (=< 14 days prior to starting treatment)
Exclusion Criteria:
Any of the following:
- Pregnant women
- Nursing women
- Men or women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception
- Unwillingness to participate in study
- Investigator discretion that enrollment on the study would pose undo harm or risk to the patient
- Non-MRI compatible implanted medical device
- Use of systemic anti-cancer therapy within the previous 3 months
- Medical contraindication to craniotomy and tumor resection
- Pathologic confirmation of grade I-II glioma, brain metastasis, or other brain tumor
- Primary spinal cord glioma or primary brainstem glioma
- Residual tumor of excessive volume or eloquent location per investigator discretion
- Patients who are unwilling or unable to comply with study procedures
- Patients with a history of grade I-II glioma are eligible if they have only received surgery as treatment and now there is concern for transformation to grade III-IV tumor

Arm 2
Experimental
Active Comparator
Cohort A (stereotactic biopsy, radiosurgery, surgery)
Cohort B (surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy)
Patients undergo MRI-guided stereotactic biopsy. Patients then undergo radiosurgery over 1 fraction. Within 14 days, patients undergo surgery. Within 4-6 weeks, patients then receive standard of care radiation therapy over 30 fraction and temozolomide daily with or without TTF at the discretion of the treating neuro-oncologist.
