PURPOSE: Volumetric assessments, such as extent of resection (EOR) or residual tumor volume, are essential criterions in glioma resection surgery. Our goal is to develop and validate segmentation machine learning models for pre- and postoperative mag...
BACKGROUND: As a pioneer center in the field of stereotaxy, Sainte-Anne school has always advocated the use of intraoperative imaging for stereotactic procedures to optimize both safety and accuracy. With the advent of intraoperative mobile CT unit, ...
We present an implantable brain-computer interface surgical case assisted by robotic navigation system in an elderly patient with tetraplegia caused by cervical spinal cord injury. Left primary motor cortex was selected for implantation of microelect...
We report a case of multiple brain abscesses' puncture, employing the ROSA™ Brain surgical robot (Zimmer Biomet) and the O-arm® O2 Imaging System (Medtronic). A 51-year-old man was diagnosed with multiple supratentorial ring enhancing cystic lesions ...
BACKGROUND: Laser-interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is an ablative treatment based on a surgically implanted laser-emitting catheter to induce a focal ablation of the pathological tissue. The main indications in neurosurgery are primary brain tumor...
BACKGROUND: Several surgical methods are used for deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes and electrode placement accuracy after robot-assisted (RAS) ver...
BACKGROUND: Recent technological advances have led to the development and implementation of machine learning (ML) in various disciplines, including neurosurgery. Our goal was to conduct a comprehensive survey of neurosurgeons to assess the acceptance...
BACKGROUND: Measurement of volumetric features is challenging in glioblastoma. We investigate whether volumetric features derived from preoperative MRI using a convolutional neural network-assisted segmentation is correlated with survival.
BACKGROUND: Shunt-dependent hydrocephalus significantly complicates subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and reliable prognosis methods have been sought in recent years to reduce morbidity and costs associated with delayed treatment or neglected onset. Mac...
BACKGROUND: For the segmentation of medical imaging data, a multitude of precise but very specific algorithms exist. In previous studies, we investigated the possibility of segmenting MRI data to determine cerebrospinal fluid and brain volume using a...
