Brain tumor electrical activity mapping study
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses specialized imaging (MEG and MRI) to map electrical activity patterns inside newly diagnosed brain tumors (gliomas) before surgery. Understanding these patterns may help doctors plan safer, more effective tumor removal.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 18 or older
- Newly diagnosed malignant glioma (aggressive brain tumor) confirmed by brain imaging
- Eligible and scheduled for brain surgery to remove the tumor
- No metallic implants (like pacemakers, dental work, or eye implants)
- No bleeding disorders or current use of blood thinners
- Not pregnant, breastfeeding, or able to use effective birth control if of childbearing age

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 a special MRI scan to study the genetics of gliomas (a type of brain tumor). It may help doctors better understand your tumor and choose the right treatment. You can join if you have a suspected or confirmed low- or high-grade glioma that still has a measurable tumor after surgery.
This study uses a special MRI scan where you watch a movie to help doctors map important functions in your brain before surgery. The goal is to improve surgical planning and safety for patients with brain tumors.
This study uses two special types of MRI scans to better understand how far a high-grade brain tumor (aggressive brain cancer) has spread into surrounding brain tissue. The goal is to help doctors plan surgery or biopsy more precisely.
This study tracks how brain activity and connections change in patients with gliomas (brain tumors) as they receive treatment. Researchers use special brain scans to understand how treatment affects the brain's function, which may help improve care for glioma patients in the future.
This study uses a special MRI technique called magnetic resonance spectroscopy to look at chemical changes in glioblastoma tumors. It aims to find patterns that might help predict how the disease will progress, and it is meant for adults who have been recently diagnosed but have not yet started radiation or chemotherapy.
