Condition: High Grade Glioma · High Grade Glioma (III or IV) · Sponsor: Fondazione I.R.C.C.S. Istituto Neurologico Carlo Besta
Histopathological diagnosis is essential for gliomas, but stereotactic biopsy carries significant risks and can fail to provide diagnostic tissue. This study aims to develop and validate an advanced fiber optic system integrated into a standard Nashold biopsy needle. This system combines 5-ALA fluorescence, Raman spectroscopy, and ultrasound imaging to provide real-time feedback on tumor tissue and blood vessels. The study involves ex-vivo testing on brain tumor tissues (High Grade Glioma) obtained through surgical resection to validate the system's ability to identify tumor margins and vascular structures, aiming to improve biopsy safety and accuracy.
