Brief Summary
Purpose:
- Improvement of extent of resection by the use of intraoperatively acquired image data sets to navigate.
- Better define the role of different intra-operative imaging modalities, used to update the navigational data set, in aiding the surgeon during resection of intra-axial brain lesions.
- To examine the cost-effectiveness of different intraoperative navigational systems as a function of operative time and Operative time (Surgery including imaging) There is increasing neuro-oncological evidence that extent of resection might have an impact in particular in low-grade lesions.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The primary end point of the study is assessment and comparison of intra-operative Magnet Resonance Imaging and ultrasound to better define its impact on the extent of resection.
72 hours
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Secondary end points should identify criteria for selecting the right system for a specific patient (Patient selection), and cost-effectiveness.
3-6 months
Study Arms (2)
