Outcomes of ventriculoperitoneal shunt insertion in the management of idiopathic intracranial hypertension in children [PDF]
Purpose The ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt has become the procedure of choice for treatment of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). We aimed to assess the efficacy of frameless stereotactic placement of VP shunts for the management of ...

Hacia el modelado 3d de tumores cerebrales mediante endoneurosonografía y redes neuronales [PDF]
Las cirugías mínimamente invasivas se han vuelto populares debido a que implican menos riesgos con respecto a las intervenciones tradicionales. En neurocirugía, las tendencias recientes sugieren el uso conjunto de la endoscopia y el ultrasonido, técnica ...

A Functional MRI and Magneto/Electro Source Imaging Procedure for Cognitive and Pre-surgical Evaluation [PDF]
Analysis of normal/pathological brain activity using neuroimaging methods is necessary to avoid operation risks, and the outcome serves as prior information for surgical neuronavigation.

Phase of beta-frequency tACS over primary motor cortex modulates corticospinal excitability
The assessment of corticospinal excitability by means of transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced motor evoked potentials is an established diagnostic tool in neurophysiology and a widely used procedure in fundamental brain research.

Fractionation of parietal function in bistable perception probed with concurrent TMS-EEG [PDF]
When visual input has conflicting interpretations, conscious perception can alternate spontaneously between these possible interpretations. This is called bistable perception.

The use of intraoperative CT-neuronavigation in Wiltse approach. A technical note
IntroductionThe paraspinal approach was first introduced in 1968 and later refined by Leon Wiltse to gain access to the lateral interevertebral foraminal region.
