A major impediment to treating the deadly brain cancer glioblastoma has been that the most potent chemotherapy can’t permeate the blood-brain barrier to reach the aggressive brain tumor... chemotherapy glioblastoma blood-brain barrier ultrasound After Surgery, a New Gel Kills Cancer Off for Good...
Surgery is most often the first part of the treatment plan. Aneurosurgeon, a surgeon who specializes in operating on the brain, tries to remove as much of the tumor as possible. Because glioblastomas often develop in healthy brain tissue, the neurosurgeon may not be able to remove all of t...
and by the possibility that the device might offer a dramatically better quality of life (compared with chemotherapy) for patients with recurrent GBM. In such patients, life expectancy is measured in months rather than years. Median survival from the time of tumor recurrence is 3 to 4 months ...
Glioblastoma, also known as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), is the most common and most malignant primary tumor of the central nervous system (CNS) (Figure 1). According to the Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States (CBTRUS) 2007-2011, 52.751 of 343.171 brain tumors (15.37%) were...
