Book ChapterDOI
A Generic Framework for Non-rigid Registration Based on Non-uniform Multi-level Free-Form Deformations
Julia A. Schnabel,Daniel Rueckert,Marcel Quist,JM Blackall,Andy D. Castellano-Smith,T Hartkens,Graeme P. Penney,Walter A. Hall,Haiying Liu,Charles L. Truwit,Frans A. Gerritsen,Derek L. G. Hill,David J. Hawkes +12 more
TL;DR: This work combines multi-resolution optimization with free-form deformations based on multi-level B-splines to simulate a non-uniform control point distribution and demonstrates that the new algorithm can successfully register images with an improved performance, while achieving a significant reduction in run-time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemotherapy delivery issues in central nervous system malignancy: a reality check.
Leslie L. Muldoon,Carole Soussain,Kristoph Jahnke,Conrad E. Johanson,Tali Siegal,Quentin R. Smith,Walter A. Hall,Kullervo Hynynen,Peter D. Senter,David M. Peereboom,Edward A. Neuwelt +10 more
TL;DR: Because of the difficulty in treating CNS tumors, innovative treatments and alternative delivery techniques involving brain/cord capillaries, choroid plexus, and CSF are needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Safety and efficacy of a multicenter study using intraarterial chemotherapy in conjunction with osmotic opening of the blood-brain barrier for the treatment of patients with malignant brain tumors
Nancy D. Doolittle,Michael E. Miner,Walter A. Hall,Tali Siegal,E. Jerome Hanson,Eva Osztie,Leslie D. McAllister,Joseph S. Bubalo,Dale F. Kraemer,David Fortin,Randal R. Nixon,Leslie L. Muldoon,Edward A. Neuwelt +12 more
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of intraarterial chemotherapy with osmotic opening of the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) for the treatment of malignant brain tumors when administered across multiple centers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postoperative Central Nervous System Infection: Incidence and Associated Factors in 2111 Neurosurgical Procedures
TL;DR: The results from this study indicate that the true incidence of PCNSI after neurosurgical procedures may be greatly overestimated in the literature and that, in surgical procedures associated with a high risk of infection, prophylaxis for S. aureus and/or P. acnes infection should be of primary concern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Safety, efficacy, and functionality of high-field strength interventional magnetic resonance imaging for neurosurgery.
Walter A. Hall,Haiying Liu,Alastair J. Martin,Alastair J. Martin,Christopher H. Pozza,Robert E. Maxwell,Charles L. Truwit +6 more
TL;DR: High-field (1.5-T) interventional MRI is a safe and effective technology for assisting neurosurgeons in achieving the goals of surgery and preliminary results suggest that the functional capabilities of this technology can yield data that can significantly influence intraoperative neurosurgical decision-making.
