| Right Frontal Craniotomy Performed With Image Guidance |
 |
niversity Hospitals Neurological Institute
will host a live webcast to demonstrate the
removal of a brain tumor that doctors believe
is causing epileptic seizures in a
middle-aged man.
An MRI showed what appears to be a glioma
(tumor) near a part of the brain that
controls muscle movement, called the motor
strip. Studies have shown that complete
removal can cure the seizures and improve
quality of life and survival, but this is
difficult to do with conventional technology
without harming the surrounding normal brain
because it's difficult to determine where
tumor ends and normal brain begins.
