Journal ArticleDOI

Optical glucose sensing in biological fluids: an overview.

TL;DR: This article reviews many of the recent advances in optical glucose sensing including optical absorption spectroscopy, polarimetry, Raman spectroscopes, and fluorescent glucose sensing and a review of calibration and data processing methods useful for optical techniques is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

MR-guided stereotactic laser ablation of epileptogenic foci in children.

TL;DR: MR-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy has a significant potential to be a minimally invasive alternative to more conventional techniques to surgically treat medically refractory epilepsy in children.
Journal ArticleDOI

Real-time magnetic resonance-guided laser thermal therapy for focal metastatic brain tumors.

TL;DR: In this article, the first real-time magnetic resonance-guided laser-induced thermal therapy of treatment-resistant focal metastatic intracranial tumors was reported, which is a prelude to the future development of closed-head interventional MRI techniques in neurosurgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility study of particle-assisted laser ablation of brain tumors in orthotopic canine model.

TL;DR: Postmortem histopathology of treated brain sections showed the effectiveness and selectivity of the nanoshell-assisted thermal ablation of canine transmissible venereal tumor (cTVT) in a canine brain model.
Journal ArticleDOI

MR thermometry-based feedback control of laser interstitial thermal therapy at 980 nm.

TL;DR: In this article, a computer-controlled laser thermal therapy system was used to produce 12 ex vivo lesions in 3 canine and porcine brains and 16 lesions in 6 canines with diffusing tip fiberoptic applicators and energies from 54 to 900 J.
