No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The use of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS )seems to have significantly increased the Gross total Resection rate achieved in brain gliomas surgery. As regard intraoperative visualisation of the tumor and its residuals, the effectiveness of IOUS has been documented in a series of 192 High Grade glioma patients, in which the combination of neuronavigation and IOUS was also related to increased overall survival in a prospective study of 32 patients, documented a good level of agreement between intraoperative ultrasonography and postoperative contrast-enhanced MRI in detecting tumor residuel they concluded that the IOUS produces results similar to those of MRI, and therefore, can be used to maximize tumor resection.
