Optimizing the Extent of Resection and Minimizing the Morbidity in Insular High-Grade Glioma Surgery by High-Field lntraoperative MRI Guidance

摘要

AIM: The result of surgical resection for insular high-grade glioma (HGG) is disappointing due to the complex anatomy of insula and aggressive growth of HGG. The use of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) was reported to improve the results of glioma surgery. The authors aimed to evaluate the impact of high-field iMRI and functional neuronavigation on the surgical resection of insular HGG.
