Brain wave decoding aims to shield memory during tumor surgery
NCT ID NCT07699172
First seen Jul 13, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study explores whether a non-invasive EEG-based technique can map cognitive networks in the brain before, during, and after tumor surgery. The goal is to help surgeons avoid damaging areas critical for memory and thinking. Ten adults with brain glioma will undergo neuropsychological tests and EEG recordings to see if this approach improves cognitive function preservation.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- EEG-based neural signal decoding procedure
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could help surgeons avoid damaging cognitive networks during brain tumor removal, potentially preserving memory and thinking skills.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early-stage study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The EEG technique may not reliably identify critical brain areas in all patients.
