Background: In rare circumstances, an implanted deep brain stimulation device will develop impedance issues across its contacts. Even more rare is the resultant inability to program a patient effectively, or that the patients' prior programming settings become unusable.
Objective: In this study we investigate this occurrence across the device manufacturers implanted, and whether this could be resolved.

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of combining predictive artificial intelligence (AI) and image similarity model to risk stratify thyroid nodules, using retrospective external validation study.
Methods: Two datasets were used to determine efficacy of the AI application. One was Stanford dataset ultrasound images of 192 nodules between April 2017 and May 2018 and the second was private practice consisting of 118 thyroid nodule images between January 2018 and December 2023.

Objective: The National Football League (NFL) has seen increasing scrutiny regarding its management of concussions, especially following an on-field incident involving the Miami Dolphins' quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in the 2022 season. We hope to elucidate the recent trends in the diagnosis and management of concussions during the course of 5 NFL seasons from 2019 to 2023.
Methods: We queried the NFL injury reports from the 2019 through 2023 database recording players listed with concussions.

Background: Patient-facing websites serve as essential platforms for disseminating information, engaging with patients, and increasing access to neurosurgical resources and services. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are at the forefront of issues facing the field of neurosurgery, especially concerning race and gender disparities in regards to providers in the field.
Methods: Data were collected in regards to the race and gender of patients and providers displayed on the neurosurgery department's patient-facing website in addition to accommodations for disabilities, decreased ability to pay, and language.

Background: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a perioperative model of care aimed at optimizing postoperative rehabilitation and reducing hospital length of stay (LOS). Decreasing LOS avoids hospital-acquired complications, reduces cost of care, and improves patient satisfaction. Given the lack of ERAS protocols for endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery (EETS) resection of pituitary adenomas, a systematic review of EETS was performed to compile patient outcomes and analyze factors that may lead to increased LOS, reoperation, and readmission rates with the intention to contribute to the development of a successful ERAS protocol for EETS.

Background: Computeed tomography (CT) is a cornerstone of the identification and management of acute changes in neurosurgery patients. In addition to the monetary expense of CT scans, further costs are incurred due to the time of patient transport and radiation exposure. Ultrasounds (USs)offer a safe, inexpensive, and bedside alternative to CT but obstacles remain due to decreased penetrance in the adult skull.

Purpose: To understand if unexplained signal artifacts in MRg-LITT proton resonance frequency- (PRF-) shift thermometry images are caused by air bubbles or hemorrhages, and to characterize their effects on temperature measurements.
Methods: Retrospective image data from an IRB-approved clinical trial of intracranial MRg-LITT were inspected for asymmetric distortions observed in phase data during ablations, which have been previously reported as likely hemorrhages. A total of eight patient cases were selected: seven with artifact occurrence and one without.
