NCT00977327

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
