Background Image-guided surgery has become standard practice during surgical resection,
using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Intraoperative ultrasound (IoUS) has …

Background A number of tools, including intraoperative ultrasound, are reported to facilitate
surgical resection of high-grade gliomas. However, results from selected surgical series do …

Maximal safe resection represents the gold standard for surgery of malignant brain tumors.
As regards gross-total resection, accurate localization and precise delineation of the tumor …

Background The use of intraoperative ultrasound (iUS) has increased in the last 15 years
becoming a standard tool in many neurosurgical centers. Our aim was to assess the utility of …

OBJECTIVE Extent of resection (EOR) and residual tumor volume are linked to prognosis in
low-grade glioma (LGG) and there are various methods for facilitating safe maximal …

Introduction The extent of tumor resection is a significant predictor of survival in high-grade
gliomas. In recent years, several authors showed the benefit of intraoperative ultrasound …

Accurate and reliable intraoperative neuronavigation is crucial for achieving maximal safe
resection of brain tumors. Intraoperative MRI (iMRI) has received significant attention as the …

Introduction In low-grade glioma (LGG) surgery, intraoperative differentiation between tumor
and most likely tumor-free brain tissue can be challenging. Intraoperative ultrasound can …

OBJECTIVE Intraoperative imaging is increasingly being used for resection control in diffuse
gliomas, in which the extent of resection (EOR) is important. Intraoperative ultrasound (iUS) …

Background Surgery for cranial and spinal tumors has evolved tremendously over the years.
Not only have neuro-oncologists been able to better understand tumor biology and thereby …
