A decade of pecision neurosurgery: the informative and systematic upgrading of brain glioma surgery

Abstract

Precision neurosurgery concept as well as the establishment of it's technical platform, have played essential roles in promoting the modern surgical management of brain gliomas in China.In the past decade,the multidisciplinary integration of medical sciences and technology innovations has significantly promoted the clinical implementation of new imaging and novel navigation technology.With active clinical translational research and practice,precision neurosurgery has developed from "startup prologue" (simple anatomical navigation) to "precision neurosurgery 1.0" (intraoperative MRI with multimodal neuronavigation),followed by "precision neurosurgery 2.0" (informative and systematic upgrading).In the past decade,Chinese researchers have made significant and remarkable achievements in precision neurosurgery through continuous efforts and innovation.In the future,state-of-art technologies such as artificial intelligence on deep learning and machine learning,multimodal real-time navigation,intraoperative optical imaging,and targeted molecular imaging technology will promote the development of precision neurosurgery in a coordinated manner, leading to the advent of "precision neurosurgery 3.0".
