Overview
Brief Summary
Main Outcome: To assess the effectiveness of new intraoperative technologies in the resection of intracranial tumors.
Design: Prospective observational study.
Method: Prospective observational study of the use and effectiveness of intraoperative neuronavigation ultrasound, intraoperative tractography, intraoperative fluorescence, advanced neuronavigation and intraoperative neurophysiology in the resection of intracranial supratentorial tumors.
Number of patients: 70 - 100.
Duration of the study: 3 years.
Ethical considerations: The study will be carried out following the international ethical recommendations for medical research in humans. Before beginning the study, the Ethical Committee of the Hospital of Santa Creu i Sant Pau approved the study protocol. It is about the study of surgical techniques that we use in our usual clinical practice.
Fundings: There are no funding sources.
