Summary
This study tests whether a special dye, given before surgery, can make brain tumor tissue glow under a special light. The goal is to help surgeons see and remove the entire tumor during the operation. About 540 adults with certain brain tumors will take part. The study focuses on measuring how well the dye works, not on treating the tumor itself.
