AN IN-VIVO, INTRAOPERATIVE PROBE FOR BRAIN TUMOUR MARGIN DELINEATION AND METHODS THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to an in-vivo intraoperative probe (100) for brain tumour margin delineation comprising of biochip carrier (104), distal end (106), handle (108), low noise data transfer cable (112) with a multichannel connector (114) or wireless connectivity (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, RF) to transfer the data from biochip/sensors (102) to an interface module (200). The present invention also relates to a method for delineate tumour margin based on measurements of an individual or multiple properties of brain tissues to detect tumour margin using an intraoperative probe.
