TL;DR: Microfluidic devices provide a very useful tool to analyze GBM cell behavior, their correlation with tumor malignancy, and the efficacy of multiple drug treatment.

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed description of the underlying white matter tracts associated with the middle temporal gyrus (MTG) was provided to improve semantic preservation during neurosurgery by mapping the tracts between cerebral hemispheres with subsequent laterality index calculated based on resultant tract volumes.

TL;DR: The radical surgical resection of brainstem gliomas can be performed with acceptable risk in well-selected cases and likely confers survival advantage for what is otherwise a rapidly and universally fatal disease.

TL;DR: Using attention task-based functional magnetic resonance imaging studies, an activation likelihood estimation (ALE) of the auditory network was generated and the frontal aslant tract was found to connect areas within the frontal lobe, while the arcuate fasciculus was finding to connect the frontal and temporal lobe, and subcortical U-fibers were found to connected parcellations within the temporal area.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI)-based fiber tractography to determine the connectivity between cortical parcellations in both hemispheres, and a laterality index (LI) was calculated with resultant tract volumes.
