Brain Imaging

Brain Imaging

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).

Area of Science:

Neurosurgery
Medical Imaging
Surgical Techniques

Background:

Accurate ventricular catheterization is crucial in neurosurgery.
Existing surgical techniques for ventricular access have limitations.
A need exists for simpler, more effective methods.

Observation:

A novel, simple method for ventricular access was developed.
Preoperative multi-planar brain images were used to mark the trajectory.
Surface markers were employed for verification during surgery.

Findings:

Two illustrative cases of ventricular catheterization using the new method were presented.
Surgeries were performed without difficulty.
Satisfactory outcomes were achieved in both cases.

Implications:

Multi-planar brain imaging offers a cost-effective approach to ventricular access.
This technique is a competent alternative for accurate ventricular catheterization.
The method has the potential to improve patient outcomes in neurosurgical procedures.
