First seen Apr 05, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study looked at medical records of 41 people who had surgery for aggressive brain tumors (high-grade gliomas). Some surgeries used a fluorescent dye that makes tumor tissue glow under special lights, helping surgeons tell it apart from healthy brain. The goal was to see if using the dye leads to more complete tumor removal, as confirmed by MRI scans, and whether it affects surgery time or safety.
