Do I need to close a stream passed to XamlReader.Load(Stream strea

Seems like XamlReader.Load(Stream stream) closes the stream internally. 
Question is, does it always do that, regardless of whether there were any 
exceptions?

or simply put, do I need a 'using' statement below?

            Stream _stream = stream;
            // using (Stream _stream = stream) {
                this.Document = (Panel) XamlReader.Load(_stream);
            // }
