Pancreatic Cancer Surgical Resection Margins: Molecular Assessment by Mass Spectrometry Imaging
BACKGROUND Surgical resection with microscopically negative margins remains the main curative option for pancreatic cancer; however, in practice intraoperative delineation of resection margins is challenging. Ambient mass spectrometry imaging has emerged as a powerful technique for chemical imaging and real-time diagnosis of tissue samples. We applied an approach combining desorption electrospr...
متن کاملMolecular assessment of surgical-resection margins of gastric cancer by mass-spectrometric imaging.
Surgical resection is the main curative option for gastrointestinal cancers. The extent of cancer resection is commonly assessed during surgery by pathologic evaluation of (frozen sections of) the tissue at the resected specimen margin(s) to verify whether cancer is present. We compare this method to an alternative procedure, desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometric imaging (DESI-M...
متن کاملIntraoperative assessment of tumor margins during glioma resection by desorption electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry.
Intraoperative desorption electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) is used to characterize tissue smears by comparison with a library of DESI mass spectra of pathologically determined tissue types. Measurements are performed in the operating room within 3 min. These mass spectra provide direct information on tumor infiltration into white or gray brain matter based on N-acetylaspartat...
متن کاملSurgical possibilities for pancreatic cancer: extended resection.
DESIGN It was the aim of this study to investigate the influence of extended retroperitoneal tissue clearance on long-term survival in patients with ductal adenocarcinoma of the head of the pancreas. PATIENTS AND METHODS From 10/1988 to 3/1998 a prospective observation study was initiated in 108 patients with malignant growth in the head of the pancreas to compare patients with regional lymph...
متن کاملMolecular typing of Meningiomas by Desorption Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry Imaging for Surgical Decision-Making.
Meningiomas are the most frequent intracranial tumors. The majority is benign slow-growing tumors but they can be difficult to treat depending on their location and size. While meningiomas are well delineated on magnetic resonance imaging by their uptake of contrast, surgical limitations still present themselves from not knowing the extent of invasion of the dura matter by meningioma cells. The...
