BRAIN MAPPING IN NEUROSURGERY
Background and Aim: Brain mapping is a study of the anatomy and function of the CNS (central nervous system). Brain mapping has many techniques and these techniques are permanently changing and updating. From the beginning, brain mapping was invasive and for brain mapping, electrical stimulation of the exposed brain was needed. However, nowadays brain mapping does not require electrical stimula...
متن کاملCLINICAL NEUROSURGERY PROCEEDINGS Excellence in Spinal Neurosurgery
The New Oxford English Dictionary defines excellence as ‘‘the possession chiefly of good qualities in an eminent or unusual degree surpassing merit or skill.’’ The definition of medicine is ‘‘the art of restoring and preserving health.’’ Consequently, excellence in medicine is the art of restoring and preserving health with surpassing merit or skill.

متن کاملUpdate in neurosurgery - nanotechnology in neurosurgery.
Nanotechnology define the science and engineering providing entirely new tools and capabilities, concerned with the design, synthesis, characterization and application of materials and devices that have a functional organization in at least 1 dimension on the nanometer (one billionth of a meter) capable to interact with cells and tissues at a molecular sub cellular level with a high degree of f...
متن کاملGraph theory analysis of complex brain networks: new concepts in brain mapping applied to neurosurgery.
Neuroanatomy has entered a new era, culminating in the search for the connectome, otherwise known as the brain's wiring diagram. While this approach has led to landmark discoveries in neuroscience, potential neurosurgical applications and collaborations have been lagging. In this article, the authors describe the ideas and concepts behind the connectome and its analysis with graph theory. Follo...
متن کاملNeurosurgery concepts: Key perspectives on dendritic cell vaccines, metastatic tumor treatment, and radiosurgery
BACKGROUND This is a laboratory study to investigate the effect of adding brain-derived-neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in a poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-g-poly (ethylene glycol) scaffold and its effect on spinal cord injury in a rat model. METHODS This is a laboratory investigation of a spinal cord injury in a rat model. A dorsolateral funiculotomy was used to disrupt the dorsolateral funiculus an...
