Brain tumor surgery represents the pinnacle of technical and technological advances in the neurosurgery. The goal remains optimized extent of resection with preservation of neurological function. The benefit of a multimodal structural and functional intra-operative monitoring approach is to improve the ability of the surgeon to achieve the goal of optimized surgical resection. Despite significant technological advances, challenges in defining tumor and functional neural tissue interface remain a significant barrier. The opportunity to address this challenge, however, presents us with an exciting path ahead.
脑肿瘤手术代表了神经外科学在技术和技术进步方面的巅峰。目标仍然是在保留神经功能的情况下最大限度地切除肿瘤。多模态结构和功能术中监测方法的益处在于提高外科医生实现最佳手术切除目标的能力。尽管取得了重大技术进步，但在定义肿瘤和功能神经组织界面方面仍然存在重大挑战。然而，有机会解决这一挑战，为我们提供了一个令人兴奋的前进道路。
