3D tool to plan brain tumor surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This observational study is testing a new 3D computer tool to help doctors plan brain tumor surgeries. If you are an adult scheduled for surgery on a suspected malignant brain tumor, your doctors can use this tool to see your tumor in 3D and improve the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove a suspected malignant brain tumor (either a new tumor or one that has spread from elsewhere in your body).
- You are able to give informed consent yourself, or a legal tutor can give it for you.
- You have not already had brain surgery in this same study and need another operation.

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 trial explores whether using a 3D mixed-reality viewer (like special goggles) to plan brain tumor surgery beforehand can help surgeons do a better job. If you are an adult with a brain tumor needing planned surgery and have had a recent MRI or CT scan, you may be able to join.
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 virtual reality to help doctors plan, practice, and explain brain surgeries. It may help you understand your procedure better and help your surgical team prepare.
This study tests a new way to guide brain surgery using a head-mounted mixed reality system, which helps the surgeon see the tumor and surrounding structures. It is for adults with certain brain tumors that have not been treated before.
This study tests a computer tool called ONCOhabitats that helps doctors plan surgery and treatment for a type of aggressive brain tumor called glioblastoma. By using your MRI scans, the tool may help guide the surgeon to remove as much tumor as possible while sparing healthy brain tissue.
