We perform a review of the literature in the field of white matter tractography for
neurosurgical planning, focusing on those works where tractography was correlated with …

The ability of diffusion tensor MRI to detect the preferential diffusion of water in cerebral
white matter tracts enables neurosurgeons to noninvasively visualize the relationship of …

Question Should patients with imaging suggestive of low grade glioma (LGG) undergo
observation versus treatment involving a surgical procedure? Target population These …

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) represents the most common and aggressive central
nervous system tumor associated with a poor prognosis. The aim of this study was to depict …

Greater extent of resection (EOR) of low-grade gliomas is associated with improved survival.
Proximity to eloquent cortical regions often limits resectability and elevates the risk of …

One of the major challenges during glioblastoma surgery is balancing between maximizing
extent of resection and preventing neurological deficits. Several surgical techniques and …

Diffuse WHO grade II gliomas are histologically and genetically heterogeneous. The 2016
WHO classification redefines grade II gliomas with respect to morphological and molecular …

Background Resection of motor pathway gliomas requires the intraoperative recognition of
essential cortical-subcortical motor structures. The degree of involvement of motor structures …

In the treatment of brain tumors, surgical intervention remains a common and effective
therapeutic option. Recent advances in neuroimaging have provided neurosurgeons with …

The importance of large-scale brain networks in higher-order human functioning is well
established in neuroscience, but has yet to deeply penetrate neurosurgical thinking due to …
