Meningioma, the most prevalent primary intracranial tumor, presents significant clinical challenges due to unclear molecular mechanisms underlying its progression from low-grade (LG) to high-grade (HG) and lack of grade-specific biomarkers. Here, we ...
This study aimed to develop a novel diagnostic tool for detecting meningioma using skull X-ray images, combining deep learning with traditional machine learning classifiers. The goal was to explore the potential of using a cost-effective and widely a...
Meningiomas and schwannomas are benign tumors that affect the central nervous system, comprising up to one-third of intracranial neoplasms. Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS), or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), is a form of radiation therapy. Although ...
BACKGROUND: Predicting recurrence in meningioma patients is vital for improving long-term outcomes and tailoring personalized treatment strategies. While traditional diagnostic methods have advanced, accurately forecasting recurrence remains a persis...
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to develop a robust and clinically applicable framework for preoperative grading of meningiomas using T1-contrast-enhanced and T2-weighted MRI images. The approach integrates radiomic feature extraction, attention-guided de...
BACKGROUND: Accurate classification of meningioma brain tumors is crucial for determining the appropriate treatment plan and improving patient outcomes. However, this task is challenging due to the slow-growing nature of these tumors and the potentia...
BACKGROUND: In the German medical billing system, surgical departments encode their procedures in OPS-codes. These OPS-codes have major impact on DRG grouping and thus mainly determine each case´s revenue. In our study, we investigate the ability of ...
BACKGROUND: Intracranial solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) and meningiomas are meningeal tumors with different malignancy levels and prognoses. Their similar imaging features make preoperative differentiation difficult, resulting in high misdiagnosis ra...
BACKGROUND: Meningioma consistency critically impacts surgical planning, as soft tumors are easier to resect than hard tumors. Current assessments of tumor consistency using MRI are subjective and lack quantitative accuracy. Integrating deep learning...
OBJECTIVE: Pituitary adenomas (PAs), craniopharyngiomas (CRs), Rathke's cleft cysts (RCCs), and tuberculum sellar meningiomas (TSMs) are common sellar region lesions with similar imaging characteristics, making differential diagnosis challenging. Thi...
