Predictive value of pituitary tumor morphology on outcomes and complications in endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 321-329, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose Endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETSS) is an increasingly utilized approach for resection of pituitary tumors. Prior studies have evaluated preoperative tumor size, location, and extent as prognostic factors for surgical resection. There is little data on the relationship between preoperative pituitary tumor radiographic morphology ...

Real-Time Dynamic Data Driven Deformable Registration for Image-Guided Neurosurgery: Computational Aspects [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Current neurosurgical procedures utilize medical images of various modalities to enable the precise location of tumors and critical brain structures to plan accurate brain tumor resection. The difficulty of using preoperative images during the surgery is caused by the intra-operative deformation of the brain tissue (brain shift), which introduces ...

Subthalamic Nucleus Oscillatory Characteristics in Meige, Cervical Dystonia and Generalized Dystonia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Deep brain stimulation offers a unique opportunity to record neural activity of the basal ganglia. While much work in dystonia has focused on the globus pallidus internus, expanding research to investigate subthalamic nucleus (STN) activity in various dystonia types is critical to provide a comprehensive understanding of dystonia ...
