Radiosurgery for Gliomas

US Neurology, 2009
Stereotactic radiosurgery is a neurosurgical modality that involves delivering a large dose of focused radiation to a lesion while sparing the surrounding normal brain tissue. The biological properties of some gliomas, specifically relating to their oxygenation and invasiveness, can make them good targets for stereotactic radiosurgery.

Safety and Feasibility of Pulsed Electric Field Ablation for Early‐Stage Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer Prior to Surgical Resection

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Methods Surgery remains the standard of care for non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) but is applicable to ≤ 30% of patients. Pulsed Electric Fields (PEF) ablation uses short‐duration, high‐voltage electrical pulses to induce cell death without relying on thermal mechanisms.

Quality of Life Outcomes in Vestibular Schwannoma: A Prospective Analysis of Treatment Modalities

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
One of the first prospective cohort studies looks at quality of life (QOL) outcomes for the three main treatment modalities for vestibular schwannoma. In our study, we found comparable long‐term disease‐specific QOL outcomes, which will allow clinicians to more accurately counsel patients before making life‐changing treatment decisions.

Real-Time Impulse Noise Removal from MR Images for Radiosurgery Applications [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
In the recent years image processing techniques are used as a tool to improve detection and diagnostic capabilities in the medical applications. Medical applications have been so much affected by these techniques which some of them are embedded in medical instruments such as MRI, CT and other medical devices.

Long‐Term Quality of Life Trend after Subthalamic Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) is a well‐established treatment for Parkinson's Disease (PD). However, the long‐term trajectory of Quality of Life (QoL) following STN‐DBS remains underexplored. Objectives We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta‐analysis to assess QoL trends up to five years after

Repeat Expansions with Small TTTCA Insertions in MARCHF6 Cause Familial Myoclonus without Epilepsy

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Familial adult myoclonus epilepsy (FAME) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by the same intronic TTTTA/TTTCA repeat expansion in seven distinct genes. TTTTA‐only expansions are benign, whereas those containing TTTCA insertions are pathogenic.

Cortical Effects of Dopamine Replacement Account for Clinical Response Variability in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Individual variability in clinical response to dopamine replacement therapy (DRT) is a key barrier to efficacious treatment for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). A better understanding of the neurobiological sources of such interindividual differences is necessary to personalize DRT prescribing, inform future clinical ...
