MRI brain scan study for tumors needing skull-base surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how MRI pictures can show the brain nerve pathways in adults with a skull-base tumor that needs surgery. The goal is to improve surgical planning and outcomes by better mapping what areas the surgery will affect.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a tumor at the base of the skull that requires surgical removal
- You are an adult (18 or older)
- You can understand the study and agree to take part
- You are not pregnant
- You are not under 18 years old

This study uses a special MRI technique to look at brain tumors before surgery. It may help doctors tell if a tumor is more or less aggressive, which can guide treatment decisions.
This study uses MRI scans to look for signs of brain tumour activity without needing additional surgery. If you are already having brain surgery, the researchers will compare the MRI images with the tumour tissue to better understand the cancer.
This study uses MRI scans to map the brain's electrical properties in healthy volunteers and in people who have had surgery for a brain tumor (glioma). It aims to better understand brain function and tumor effects.
This trial uses advanced brain scans to create a detailed map of your brain's wiring before surgery. This helps surgeons remove more tumor safely while protecting important areas that control movement, language, and vision.
This study checks a new computer software tool that helps doctors map important brain networks and how blood flow responds during brain scans. It may help improve planning and safety for people having brain tumor surgery.
This study uses an MRI scan during surgery to help doctors remove brain metastases more completely. It may help ensure that all tumor tissue is removed.
