Accuracy of Frameless Optical Navigation in Stereotactic Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy Background Glioblastoma is a rapidly growing and invasive brain tumor, and traditional treatment methods include surgical resection, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. However, for some patients with deep-seated tumors or poor physical conditions, traditio...
In recent years, refractory epilepsy has received increasing attention from the medical community. Refractory epilepsy is defined as the continuing occurrence of severe seizures despite treatment with two appropriate antiepileptic drugs. For patients who are unresponsive to drug treatment, if the seizure onset zone (SOZ) can be accurately localized...
Application of Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy in Insular Gliomas Research Background and Problem Statement The management of insular gliomas has always faced significant surgical challenges. Due to the complex functional and vascular anatomy surrounding the insula, maximally safe resection is highly technically challenging. Removing low-grade a...
Research Report: Mechanical Thrombectomy Outcomes in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients with Cancer Background Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusion (LVO) is a severe neurological injury, which is further complicated in cancer patients. Cancer-related stroke mechanisms include a hypercoagulable state, coagulopathies due to tumor-...
Neurosurgical Research: Anatomical and Functional Study of Connections between the Paracentral Lobule and Primary Motor Cortex In recent years, researchers have been continuously exploring the connections between different regions of the human brain, particularly those involving motor function and its plasticity. It is known that the paracentral lo...
Clinical Study Report on Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) in Neurosurgery Background Introduction With the continuous progress of modern medical technology, Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) has gradually gained a foothold in the field of neurosurgical tumor treatment, especially in treating intracranial lesions that are difficult ...
Time prediction plays an important role in language comprehension, making language processing faster and more efficient. Especially in complex auditory and language processing, predicting the information of the upcoming utterance can improve comprehension efficiency and reduce cognitive load. Existing research has shown that listeners can utilize t...
Application of Radiomics in Predicting Local Control in Postoperative Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Brain Metastasis Patients Academic Background Brain Metastases (BMs) are the most common malignant brain tumors, far surpassing primary brain tumors like gliomas in incidence. Recent medical guidelines recommend surgical treatment for patients with s...
Comprehensive Analysis of Leptomeningeal Metastasis in IDH Wild-Type Glioblastoma In this article published in the journal “Neuro-Oncology,” the research team starting in 2024 delves into the incidence, risk factors, and prognosis of leptomeningeal metastases (LM) in patients with isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild-type glioblastoma. This study wa...
Childhood Gliomatosis Cerebri: A Poor Prognosis Phenotype of Diffuse Glioma with Distinct Molecular Characteristics Introduction Gliomatosis cerebri (GC) is a highly invasive form of diffuse glioma. It was initially discarded as an independent pathological type due to its indeterminate molecular characteristics. However, with the advancements in mo...
