Introduction: The most common primary tumors of brain are gliomas and tumor grading is essential for designing proper treatment strategies. The gold standard choice to determine grade of glial tumor is biopsy which is an invasive method. The purpose of this study was to investigatethe role of fiber density index (FDi) by means of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) (as a noninvasive method) in glial...

The brain is a frequent site of neoplastic growth, including both primary and metastatic tumors. The clinical intractability of many brain tumors and their distinct biology are implicitly linked to the unique microenvironment of the central nervous system (CNS) and cellular interactions within. Among the most intriguing forms of cellular interactions is that mediated by membrane-derived extrace...

131I-TM-601 is a 36-amino acid peptide, called chlorotoxin (TM-601), derived from scorpion venom labeled with I-131. TM-601 binds a receptor on the surface of tumor cells, and not on normal cells. A single dose of 131I-TM-601 administered intracranially to human xenografted mouse models of glioma has been shown to extend survival up to 269% in multiple studies. 131I-TM-601 is in a multi-center ...

Introduction: The brain tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in the brain, which is one of the most important challenges in neurology. Brain tumors have different types. Some brain tumors are benign and some brain tumors are cancerous and malignant. Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest malignant brain tumor in adults. The average survival rate for peo...

INTRODUCTION The differentiation of metastatic and primary brain tumors with certainty is important since clinical management and treatment of these two types of tumors are radically different. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of peritumoral edema volume, tumor volume and mass effect of tumor on differential diagnosis of metastatic and primary brain tumors. Also we ha...

Cystic formation in human primary brain tumors is a relatively rare event whose incidence varies widely according to the histotype of tumor. Composition cystic fluid has mostly been characterized samples collected at time tumor resection and no indications evolution content are available. We proteome using bottom-up proteomic approach on sequential obtained from secretory meningioma (SM), schwa...

Abstract BACKGROUND Brain metastases (BMs) are the most common expansive intracranial lesions in adults. Approximately 50% of patients diagnosed with new brain have more than one metastasis at time diagnosis. OBJECTIVE We report our experience treated GKSR and evaluate outcome. METHODS Patients by Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery (GKSR) institution between 2008 2021 for BM were recorded re...
