Technological Adjuncts for Malignant Brain Tumor Surgery

Course Overview

Faculty speak to malignant brain tumor surgery and its technical adjuncts for neurosurgeons in the operating room. Earn 3.0 CME and learn about the strategies for intraoperative diagnosis and imaging, tumor resection, noninvasive catheter-based treatments as well as how to recognize the validity of emerging techniques in intraoperative brain tumor visualization.
