Glutamate Excitotoxicity and Its Role in Glioblastoma Biology
Gliomas are the most frequent type of primary brain tumors in adults; among them glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant, being associated with the worst prognosis. Glutamate (Glu) is an aminoacid, responsible for essential functions in the Central Nervous System (CNS), acting both as metabolite and neurotransmitter. It is …
Radiation Induced Alterations in Resting State Brain Networks in Pediatric Brain Tumor Patients
With modern therapy, the survival rate for pediatric brain tumor patients has significantly improved, with over 70% of patients surviving their disease. However, this progress often comes at the cost of substantial morbidity, with cognitive deficits being the primary obstacle to independent living. Robust predictors of cognitive decline and a …
Experiences and Needs of Patients With a High-grade Glioma and Their Caregivers
The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences and needs of patients with a high-grade glioma and their caregivers. Semi-structured interviews with patients and caregivers will be conducted and analysed using Grounded-Theory approach.
Metabolic Characteristics of Brain Tumors Using Hyperpolarized Carbon-13 Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Imaging (MRSI)
This is a non-randomized, purely observational, feasibility study to detect metabolic changes in patients with brain malignancy using a novel hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate MRSI.
Assessment of Tiredness During Awake Resection of Intracerebral Tumors
Occasional patients with intracranial tumors need to have a planned awakening during surgery to avoid major disability from the tumor resection. During the awake part of the surgery an increasing degree of tiredness is observed. For the surgeon to plan the resection knowledge of the degree and speed of tiredness/sleepiness …
Florida Center for Brain Tumor Research
The purpose of this research study is to collect and store brain tumor tissue samples for future research. The samples will become part of the University of Florida Brain Tumor Tissue Bank/Florida Center for Brain Tumor Research. The goal is to find improved treatments and cures for brain tumors.
A Comprehensive Clinical fMRI Software Solution to Enable Mapping of Critical Functional Networks and Cerebrovascular Reactivity in the Brain
Our preliminary work demonstrates that an integrated fMRI software solution, incorporating tb-fMRI, rs-fMRI, and CVR mapping, is clinically feasible and helps clinicians plan brain tumor resection. We have developed a novel automated seed selection method that can accurately map language networks from rs-fMRI. We hypothesize that our innovative approach to …
Tracing Brain Tumors Through Deep Time
Brain tumors involve different age groups with a wide range of tumor types involving different anatomical compartments of the brain. The evolution of the brain in vertebrates, including the most recent homo species (including humans), has occurred through increasing structural complexity in more evolved species. In the retrospective study, we …
A Vision-Language Foundation Model for Brain Disease Diagnosis From Multimodal Data
The goal of this observational study is to develop an innovative, comprehensive, and explainable AI vision-language foundation model (VLM) to advance the diagnosis and interpretation of brain diseases using multi-modal data. We will include patient demographics, medical imaging data (such as MRI, CT, and PET scans), histopathological data, genomic data …
Registry of Patients With Brain Tumors Treated With STaRT (GammaTiles)
The objectives of this registry study are to evaluate real-world clinical outcomes and patient reported outcomes that measure the effectiveness and safety of STaRT.
