Experimental and human brain neoplasms: detection with in vivo sodium MR imaging.

Radiology, 1987
Elevations of intracellular sodium concentration have been observed in rapidly proliferating cells and malignant neoplasms. Sodium magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (with repetition times of 133 msec and echo times of 13, 26, 39, and 42 msec) was performed

Intraoperative sonographic delineation of low-grade brain neoplasms defined poorly by computed tomography.

Radiology, 1984
Sixty-four consecutive primary or metastatic brain tumors were reviewed to assess the efficacy of intraoperative sonography for localization, biopsy, and/or drainage.

Advances in stereotactic radiosurgery for brain neoplasms [PDF]

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2001
It has been nearly half a century since Leksell introduced brain radiosurgery. In the past decade, the procedure has become widely used as both a primary and adjuvant treatment. Radiosurgery is now commonly employed for arteriovenous malformations, brain metastases, and several benign lesions.

Roentgen Therapy of Primary Neoplasms of the Brain

Radiology, 1951
Surgery is the treatment of choice for most primary neoplasms of the brain. However, the extent of surgical intervention varies. Many growths are inaccessible and a decompression is the sole procedure possible. In some instances, the surgeon can do only a partial resection or remove some tissue for biopsy. Complete enucleation is rarely accomplished in

Intraarterial delivery of adenovirus vectors and liposome-DNA complexes to experimental brain neoplasms.

Human Gene Therapy, 1999
This study investigated the intraarterial delivery of genetically engineered replication-deficient adenovirus vectors (AVs) and cationic liposome-plasmid DNA complexes (lipoDNA) to experimental brain tumors.

Selective uptake of viral and monocrystalline particles delivered intra-arterially to experimental brain neoplasms.

Human Gene Therapy, 1995
In this study we investigated the intra-arterial delivery of viral and nonviral particles to experimental brain tumors. A herpes simplex virus (HSV) vector and monocrystalline iron oxide nanoparticles (MION) were injected into the internal carotid artery

The risk of cancer in relatives of patients with brain neoplasm

Acta Neurochirurgica, 1994
The family trees of 142 patients, suffering from histologically proven brain tumour, were compared to those of an equal number of sex and age matched controls. The results showed no statistically significant differences in the occurrence of malignant neoplasm between the two groups.

Growth hormone therapy and tumor recurrence. Findings in children with brain neoplasms and hypopituitarism.

A M A Journal of Diseases of Children, 1985
We report the outcome of growth hormone (GH) therapy in 34 children (17 boys and 17 girls) with brain tumors in whom hypopituitarism developed. The types of tumors included the following: craniopharyngiomas (18); germinomas (four); astrocytomas (three ...

Altered consciousness associated with brain neoplasms

2008
Publisher Summary Coma is the disorder of consciousness, and any process causing a change in mental status can culminate in coma. After back pain in adults and headache in children, altered mental status is the second most common neurological symptom in patients with systemic cancer and intracranial neoplasm.
