Typical 3-D localization of tumor remnants of WHO grade II hemispheric gliomas—lessons learned from the use of intraoperative high-field MRI control

摘要

Background Complete resection of grade II gliomas might prolong survival but is not always possible. The goal of the study was to evaluate the location of unexpected grade II gliomas remnants after assumed complete removal with intraoperative (iop) MRI and to assess the reason for their non-detection.
