An attempt to identify brain tumour tissue in neurosurgery by mechanical indentation measurements.
Background: The intraoperative differentiation between tumour tissue, healthy brain tissue, and any sensitive structure of the central nervous system is carried out in modern neurosurgery using various multimodal technologies such as neuronavigation, fluorescent dyes, intraoperative ultrasound or the use of intraoperative MRI, but also the haptic experience of the neurosurgeon. Supporting the surgeon by developing instruments with integrated haptics could provide a further objective dimension in the intraoperative recognition of healthy and diseased tissue.
Methods: In this study, we describe intraoperative mechanical indentation measurements of human brain tissue samples of different tumours taken during neurosurgical operation and measured directly in the operating theatre, in a time frame of maximum five minutes. We present an overview of the Young's modulus for the different brain tumour entities and potentially differentiation between them.
Results: We examined 238 samples of 75 tumour removals. Neither a clear distinction of tumour tissue against healthy brain tissue, nor differentiation of different tumour entities was possible on solely the Young's modulus. Correlation between the stiffness grading of the surgeon and our measurements could be found.
Conclusion: The mechanical behaviour of brain tumours given by the measured Young's modulus corresponds well to the stiffness assessment of the neurosurgeon and can be a great tool for further information on mechanical characteristics of brain tumour tissue. Nevertheless, our findings imply that the information gained through indentation is limited.
期刊介绍:
The journal "Acta Neurochirurgica" publishes only original papers useful both to research and clinical work. Papers should deal with clinical neurosurgery - diagnosis and diagnostic techniques, operative surgery and results, postoperative treatment - or with research work in neuroscience if the underlying questions or the results are of neurosurgical interest. Reports on congresses are given in brief accounts. As official organ of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies the journal publishes all announcements of the E.A.N.S. and reports on the activities of its member societies. Only contributions written in English will be accepted.
