PURPOSE: High-grade glioma (HGG) is the most common and deadly malignant glioma of the central nervous system. The current standard of care includes surgical resection of the tumor, which can lead to functional and cognitive deficits. The aim of this...
Intraoperative Raman spectroscopy (RS) has been identified as a potential tool for surgeons to rapidly and noninvasively differentiate between diseased and normal tissue. Since the previous meta-analysis on the subject was published in 2016, improvem...
PURPOSE: Accurate deformable registration of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans containing pathologies is challenging due to changes in tissue appearance. In this paper, we developed a novel automated three-dimensional (3D) convolutional U-Net ba...
BACKGROUND: Accurate classification of gliomas is critical to the selection of immunotherapy, and MRI contains a large number of radiomic features that may suggest some prognostic relevant signals. We aim to predict new subtypes of gliomas using radi...
Accurate intraoperative differentiation of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) remains pivotal in guiding neurosurgical decisions. However, distinguishing PCNSL from other lesions, notably glioma, through frozen sections challenges pathol...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to develop accurate and automated detection and segmentation methods for brain tumors, given their significant fatality rates, with aggressive malignant tumors like Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) having a five-yea...
The use of various kinds of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for examining brain tissue has increased significantly in recent years, and manual investigation of each of the resulting images can be a time-consuming task. This paper presents...
BACKGROUND: Classifying brain tumors accurately is crucial for treatment and prognosis. Machine learning (ML) shows great promise in improving tumor classification accuracy. This study evaluates ML algorithms for differentiating various brain tumor t...
BACKGROUND: Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is a well-established preoperative mapping tool for motor-eloquent glioma surgery. Machine learning (ML) and nTMS may improve clinical outcome prediction and histological correlation.
