PURPOSE: Classification and grading of central nervous system (CNS) tumours play a critical role in the clinic. When WHO CNS5 simplifies the histopathology diagnosis and places greater emphasis on molecular pathology, artificial intelligence (AI) has...
BACKGROUND: Glioma irradiation often unavoidably damages the brain volume and affects cognition. This study aims to evaluate the relationship of remote cognitive assessments in determining cognitive impairment of irradiated glioma patients in relatio...
BACKGROUND: Rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) prompted its wide application in healthcare systems. Stereotactic radiosurgery served as a good candidate for AI model development and achieved encouraging result in recent years. This artic...
PURPOSE: Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPGs) are prone to high surgical risks, and they could even lead to death due to their specific sites. To determine the value of frameless robot-assisted stereotactic biopsies of DIPGs, when compared it wi...
INTRODUCTION: Glioblastomas (GBMs) are highly aggressive tumors. A common clinical challenge after standard of care treatment is differentiating tumor progression from treatment-related changes, also known as pseudoprogression (PsP). Usually, PsP res...
PURPOSE: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tends to metastasize to the brain. Between 10 and 60% of NSCLCs harbor an activating mutation in the epidermal growth-factor receptor (EGFR), which may be targeted with selective EGFR inhibitors. However, d...
PURPOSE: Targeted treatment for brainstem lesions requires above all a precise histopathological and molecular diagnosis. In the current technological era, robot-assisted stereotactic biopsies represent an accurate and safe procedure for tissue diagn...
