Multi-Level Feature Exploration and Fusion Network for Prediction of IDH Status in MRI Background Glioma is the most common malignant primary brain tumor in adults. According to the 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors, genotype plays a significant role in the classification of tumor subtypes, especially the isocitrate dehy...
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) resulting in upper limb paralysis significantly impacts patients’ independence and quality of life. Among the SCI patient population, regaining control over hand and arm movements is considered the highest priority treatment goal, surpassing even the restoration of walking ability. However, current clinical methods to impro...
Feasibility, Safety, and Performance of Full-Scalp Subdural EEG - A Report on Minimally Invasive Electrode Implantation Background and Purpose Since Berger first recorded human scalp electrical signals and discovered the alpha rhythm in 1929, the recording capabilities of electroencephalography (EEG) have significantly improved in terms of spatial ...
Natural History and MRI Follow-up of Patients with Cerebral Cavernous Malformations Background Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular malformations of the brain and spinal cord lined by endothelial cells and lacking smooth muscle. Due to the disruption of endothelial cell permeability and tight junctions, patients may present with foc...
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...
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...
