Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The surgical treatment of brain tumors has been continuously refined. To enhance the safety and efficacy of surgery, our understanding of pathophysiology and the knowledge regarding recent advancements in imaging technology and surgical devices need to be updated and incorporated into surgical procedures. For this Special Issue, we welcome manuscripts focusing on recent advancements in the surgical resection of any type of brain tumors. The choice of suitable frameworks is quite flexible; for example, malignant/benign brain tumors, intraventricular tumors, skull base tumors, pediatric tumors, intraoperative monitoring, etc. We hope that this Special Issue will contribute to furthering understanding of the recent advancements and future perspectives regarding surgery for brain tumors.
Dr. Soichi Oya
