First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study tested a device called cCeLL-Ex vivo that uses laser microscopy to quickly image brain tumor tissue during surgery. The goal was to see if it could diagnose tumors as accurately as the standard method (frozen section) but in less time. The study included 285 adults scheduled for brain tumor removal. The trial was terminated early, so final results are not available.
