Relative effectiveness of Frameless stereotactic biopsy
Brain biopsy procedure has been evolving for the last four decades in concurrence with the imaging developments of the brain. Frame-based stereotactic interventions are considered the conventional gold reference standard for obtaining biopsy specimens of lesions from the brain. In this modality, a bulky head frame is fixed to the patient’s head before imaging procedures as it is an integral ...

These AR Glasses Turned Me Into an Instant Surgeon
My hands are trembling. I have a 12-inch surgery grade needle in my right hand, and a transducer in my left. Without moving anything but my eyes I’m able to look up at a monitor to see an ultrasound image and the daunting outline of a tumor. “Go ahead, you can do it. Insert the needle directly into the tumor,” my guide tells me. I hesitate, take a deep breath out of fear or ...

The Power of Digital Pathology: Why Labs Everywhere Should Make the Switch
Pathology as it is practiced today in labs around the world is not all that different from the pathology of the 19th century. The microscope has changed relatively little since then, and Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained slides remain the bread and butter of the pathologist. Yet it is not for lack of technological development; in recent years, digital pathology whole slide scanners, digital ...

Montreal-developed probe could be breakthrough in finding cancer (Montreal CTV News)
A fibre-optic probe can detect errant cancer cells within healthy tissue during brain tumour surgery with close to 100 per cent accuracy and sensitivity, reducing the risk of recurrence and thereby increasing a patient’s survival time, say the Canadian researchers who developed the device. The hand-held, pen-like instrument, known as a Raman spectroscopy probe, is able to differentiate ...

Freehand Transperineal Biopsy
“Freehand transperineal biopsy” seems to be the latest buzzword in the urology world, and for good reason. Compared to transrectal, transperineal is proven to be the cleaner and ultimately safer approach for prostate biopsies. The support for transperineal is growing, as mounting evidence continues to debunk previous misconceptions of tolerability, feasibility and accuracy. We ...
