Tiny catheter in brain surgery could unlock secrets of tumors

NCT ID NCT04047264

Summary

This study is testing a tiny catheter placed during brain surgery to collect fluid from the tumor area. The goal is to find chemical markers in the fluid that could help doctors better understand, diagnose, and monitor brain tumors in the future. The procedure is done during a patient's standard surgery, and the main focus is on learning about the tumors, not directly treating them.
