Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility of radiosurgery for malignant brain tumors in infants by use of image-guided robotic radiosurgery: preliminary report.

TL;DR: Radiosurgery with minimal toxicity can be delivered to infants by use of a robotically controlled system that does not require rigid fixation, according to a formal dose-escalation trial under way.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stimulation threshold potentials of intraoperative cortical motor mapping using monopolar trains of five in pediatric epilepsy surgery

TL;DR: Monopolar electrical stimulation threshold for intraoperative motor cortical mapping were more consistent in the upper limb compared to lower limb and facial muscles and there was a distinct trend that patients with cortical dysplasia/tuberous sclerosis have higher stimulation thresholds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of the MET Receptor Tyrosine Kinase as a Novel Therapeutic Strategy in Medulloblastoma.

TL;DR: The in vitro efficacy of targeting the MET receptor using the highly specific small molecule inhibitor PHA665752 as a novel treatment strategy in medulloblastoma is examined and support for further preclinical testing of small molecule inhibitors targeting theMET receptor in medULLoblastomas is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristics of dipoles in clustered individual spikes and averaged spikes

TL;DR: Characteristics of clustered interictal spikes need careful examination before the use of dipole analysis of averaged spikes for epilepsy evaluation, and more spike groups after clustering and fewer acceptable dipoles from averaged spikes in IETLE reflect variable spike activity over extensive epileptic regions.
