Treatment of Acoustic Neuromas
New England Journal of Medicine, 1998Acoustic neuromas (vestibular schwannomas) are benign tumors of the eighth cranial nerve. They are unilateral and typically become symptomatic after the age of 30 years.

Conservative Treatment of Patients with Acoustic Tumors
Neurosurgery, 1991Abstract Seventy of 178 patients with acoustic tumors initially were treated conservatively and have been followed up for an average of 26 ± 2 months. The tumor size was determined by the mean maximum anteroposterior and mediolateral diameters, using computed tomographic or magnetic resonance imaging scans obtained sequentially ...

Is No Treatment Good Treatment in the Management of Acoustic Neuromas in the Elderly?
The Laryngoscope, 1986Two hundred twenty‐eight patients with acoustic neuromas were seen between 1974 and 1985. Twenty‐eight received no surgical treatment. Five patients who had undergone previous partial excision were excluded. The mean age was 71 years. The mean expected survival was 14.3 years. The mean follow‐up interval was 51 months (range 12 to 120 months).

Gamma Knife Treatment of Acoustic Neurinoma
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1998The results of treatment of acoustic neurinomas using Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKR) during a 6-year period in our center were reviewed. Since May 7, 1990, we treated 88 cases of acoustic neurinoma with GKR. During a 52-month mean follow-up period, MRI was obtained in 63 patients. Reduction in tumor size occurred in 34 (54%) cases, and another 27 (42.8%

Stereotactic radiotherapy for the treatment of acoustic neuromas
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2004Object. The authors sought to assess the safety and efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy when using a linear accelerator equipped with a micromultileaf collimator for the treatment of patients with acoustic neuromas. Methods. Fifty patients harboring acoustic neuromas were treated with stereotactic radiotherapy between September 1997 and June 2003 ...

Delayed diagnosis and treatment of acoustic neuroma
The Laryngoscope, 1989AbstractThe records of 25 patients who underwent excision of acoustic neuroma between 1980 and 1987 were reviewed. All patients originated from southern New England. Facial nerve function was preserved in 92% of all patients, and 42% of patients with tumors less than 2.0 cm retained residual hearing postoperatively.

Evaluation and Surgical Treatment of Acoustic Neuroma
New England Journal of Medicine, 1972Abstract In 46 consecutive patients treated surgically for acoustic neuroma and followed for a minimum of two years, there was no operative mortality; 90 per cent returned to their previous level of activity, and all were able to care for themselves. Total removal of tumor was possible in 70 per cent, and radical subtotal removal in another 10 per cent.

Tumor treatment by time-reversal acoustics
1999 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing. Proceedings. ICASSP99 (Cat. No.99CH36258), 1999There has been a great deal of work in ocean science over the last 10 years in using acoustic channel models in the signal processing. The goal has been to compensate for the "barbershop" effect in which a sonar system confuses the true source with its reflections in the acoustic mirrors formed by the ocean surface and bottom.
