A Taiwanese Oncogenetic Panel and Integrated Clinical Data Registry Study for Diffuse Glioma
Glioma is a major histological subtype of primary malignant brain tumors in Taiwan, with distinct epidemiological, clinical, and pathological features comparing to the other common cancer diseases. The disease rarely appears with metastatic disease at diagnosis, and with the most malignant subtype, glioblastoma, occurs with preference in mid- to old-age. …
Neurocognitive Function After Proton Therapy in Children and Adolescents
Brain tumors are the second most frequent malignant diseases in children and adolescents. In the study the short and medium term consequences of proton therapy on cognitive processes in particular on executive functions in pediatric patients shall be highlighted/analysed/evalutated. In a second step, these results are to be compared with …
Impact of the Development of Pediatric Palliative Care
Despite medical advances, cancer remains the leading cause of death by disease in children. Brain tumors are the second most common cause of cancer in children after leukemia, representing 25% of pediatric cancers. The overall survival rate is about 50% with extremes ranging from less than 5% to more than …
Assessment of Eloquent Function in Brain Tumor Patients
Purpose of the study: AIM 1 Prospectively collect pre-operative (fMRI, DTI, MEG) and intra-operative mapping data in patients with intra-axial brain tumors to assess how well each modality predicts the location of eloquent brain function. In addition, each modality will be compared with the other. AIM 2 Assess reorganization of …
A Study to Measure the Effect of Brain Stimulation on Hand Strength and Function in Patients With Brain Tumors
The neurosurgical standard of care for treating a patient with a tumor invading hand primary motor cortex (M1) includes performing a craniotomy with intraoperative direct electrical stimulation (DES) mapping and to resect as much tumor as possible without a resultant permanent neurological deficit. However, the subjective nature of current intraoperative …
Longitudinal Prospective Study of Neurocognition & Neuroimaging in Primary BT Patients
In this proposal, the investigators introduce a novel, translational study to prospectively examine primary brain tumor patients undergoing fractionated radiation therapy to the brain. Quantitative neuroimaging, radiation dose information, and directed neurocognitive testing will be acquired through this study to improve understanding of cognitive changes associated with radiation dosage to …
Project MILANO: Connections Between Patients With Brain Tumors and Their Pets: an Analysis of Concerns and Needs
Context and problem In France, 61% of households own a pet, highlighting the significant role pets play in the daily lives. Patients diagnosed with brain tumors face specific challenges that may affect their ability to care their pets, including: Progressive neurological deficits (cognitive and/or motor), limiting their autonomy, A life-threatening …
Diagnostic Assessment of Amino Acid PET/MRI in the Evaluation of Glioma and Brain Metastases
MRI is used in clinical routine for diagnosing brain tumors, but has limitations in identifying tumor grade, true tumor extension and differentiate viable tumor tissue from treatment induced changes and recurrences. Amino acid PET has demonstrated a great potential for defining true tumor volume, differentiate viable tumor tissue from postoperative …
Biological Collection of Brain Tumors
The objective of this study is to build a collection of biological samples from patients with brain tumors.
Investigating Visual Verticality Disorder and Lateropulsion in a Neurosurgical Cohort of Patients With Brain Tumours
The overall objective of this research is to investigate the clinical characteristics pre- and post-brain tumour resection with a focus on visual verticality disorder, and lateropulsion, including neuroimaging analysis, of a neurosurgical cohort of patients with brain tumours. This prospective observational cohort study will investigate clinical and neuroimaging characteristics and …
