Non-randomized trial of neuromodulation prehabilitation for brain tumor language networks
Small study tests brain stimulation and language training before brain tumor surgery
This is a non-randomized controlled trial in 26 patients with operable brain tumors.
Brain stimulation and language training before surgery reduced overlap between stimulation targets and language areas in patients with opera…
Stereotactic radiation improves symptoms versus hippocampal-avoidance whole brain radiation in patients with 5 to 20 brain metastases
Targeted Brain Radiation Eases Symptoms More Than Full-Brain Treatment
This Phase 3 randomized clinical trial enrolled 196 patients with 5 to 20 brain metastases and no prior brain-directed radiation across four…
Targeted radiation for brain tumors preserves daily functioning and quality of life better than whole-brain treatment in cancer patients wit…
Review of non-invasive prehabilitation for neuro-oncology patients at Institut Guttmann in Barcelona
Brain Tumor Surgery Is Terrifying — What If You Could Prepare Your Mind First?
This primary trial review examines a non-invasive prehabilitation (PRH) program in 29 neuro-oncology patients at Institut Guttmann in Barcel…
A pre-surgery wellness program significantly reduced emotional distress and improved quality of life for adults facing brain tumor removal.
Neurosurgery patients with brain tumors show preoperative financial capacity deficits compared to healthy controls
Brain tumor surgery patients often struggle with financial tasks before and after the operation
This prospective observational study evaluated 21 patients with brain tumors and 21 age- and education-matched healthy controls.
Brain tumor surgery patients often struggle with financial tasks like reading bills, and many overestimate their ability to manage money.
First-line osimertinib shows high response rates in EGFR-mutated NSCLC with active brain metastases
Untreated Brain Metastases Respond Well to Osimertinib
This single-arm phase II trial evaluated first-line osimertinib in 100 patients with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer, including thos…
Osimertinib, a lung cancer drug, effectively treats untreated brain metastases, with an 81.8% response rate for measurable brain spots in a …
Systematic review finds variable MRI segmentation accuracy for pituitary adenomas and gland
Can AI Outline a Pea-Sized Brain Gland Better Than Humans?
A systematic review of 34 studies analyzed automatic and semi-automatic MRI segmentation methods for pituitary adenomas and the pituitary gl…
Artificial intelligence is getting good at tracing pituitary tumors on brain scans, but it still struggles with the tiny gland itself.
