Brief Summary
The goal of this proposal is to test the performance of a novel optical imaging system for real-time quantitative imaging of brain function through multiple hemodynamic measures during neurosurgery. ...
Detailed Description
A speckle-contrast imaging camera uses a low-power laser to check brain activity. The imaging camera uses reflected red light to take a special kind of picture of the amount of blood flowing in your b...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Location of planned resection near somatosensory cortex.
- Planned intraoperative electrocortical mapping.
- Able to render written informed consent.
Exclusion
- Patients with a hemiparesis graded 3/5 (active movement against gravity) or worse. Unpublished data from MDACC Department of Neurosurgery suggests that cortical mapping is ineffective in these patients because an adequate cortical response is not detected
- Patients with a vascular malformation within the proximity of the cortex area imaged.
