Brain tumor surgery imaging study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests a special microscope that helps surgeons see brain tumors more clearly during surgery. The goal is to see if it can help remove more of the tumor safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
