centres on the notion of agency, for they write: “severing the cortical connections between the two hemispheres does not seem to lead to two independent conscious agents within one brain. . . . Instead, we obs
After the 2000s, surgery has come to use microporous polysaccharide hemispheres, natural macromolecular biopolymers obtained from potato starch, and over time, these hemostatic agents proved their efficiency and safety in performing topical hemostasis, both in clinical studies and in experimental ones. ...
Even if an electrically heated surgical table is in use, it needs to be covered with towels or blankets to separate the animal from a metal surface. Passively wrapping extremities of smaller nonhuman primates with bubblewrap “mittens” and “booties” is quite effective in maintaining body ...
More specifically, we found that these patterns focus around epicenters within specific "con- nectotypes" that followed predictable, distinct, and spatially separate patterns and provide significant clinical importance for neurosurgeons in an actionable way. Brain surgery involves making difficult decisions...
These errors were found at the cortical and subcortical level but mostly cortically (see Third analysis: cortical/subcortical division When regarding each error type and hemisphere (i.e., left, right, left+right) as a separate subset, there were 13 (error types) × 3 (hemispheres) = 39 ...
In autumn 1919, the American College of Surgeons declared neurological surgery as a separate specialty in surgery. In 1920, five months after the meeting, the American College of Surgeons accepted the formal genesis of the neurosurgical specialty in the United States. In 1931, the Harvey Cushing ...
We defined cerebral oxygen desaturation events as any regional cerebral oxygen saturation values ≥20% below baseline in either left or right or both hemispheres during surgery. Outcomes The primary outcome of the single-center NeuroVISION Cardiac pilot study was to determine the feasibility of ...
(2001) studied a large number of MR images by voxel-based morphometry and found no significant dif- ference in the bilateral hemispheres reflective of hand- edness, so that we did not separate left-, mixed-, and right-handed subjects. We performed brain scanning on a 3T clinical MR imager...
A real-time method and system to accurately demarcate sub-territories of the subthalamic nucleus area in the brain during surgery, based on microelectrode recordings and a Hidden Ma
Attached to or embedded in each marker carrier is a vertical radio-opaque wire or strip which serves as the midline marker 96. When the frame is mounted on a patient's head, the third ventricle or cavity between the left and right hemispheres of the brain can be imaged on a fluoroscope...
