AI Article Synopsis
- The study discusses a new technique for locating and defining brain tumors using injected dyes that don't spread.
- This method helps create a map of the tumor's borders, especially near critical brain functions.
- Using this mapping before surgery makes it safer for surgeons when they remove difficult-to-reach tumors.
Article Abstract
Our preliminary experience with a method of localizing and delimiting brain tumors is reported. The borders of the neoplasm facing important functional areas are mapped with stereotactically injected non-spreading dyes. This procedure precedes craniotomy and provides the surgeon with safer landmarks when he resects deep-seated lesions.
