Abstract:

Abstract BACKGROUND: Although surgery followed by radiation effectively treats metastatic epidural compression, the ideal surgical approach should enable fast recovery and rapid institution of radiation and systemic therapy directed at the primary tumor. OBJECTIVE: To assess spinal laser interstitial thermotherapy (SLITT) as an alternative to surgery monitored in real time by thermal magnetic resonance (MR) images. METHODS: Patients referred for spinal metastasis without motor deficits underwent MR-guided SLITT, followed by stereotactic radiosurgery. Clinical and radiological data were gathere

Abstract:

Abstract Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a minimally invasive treatment for intracranial lesions entailing thermal ablation via a stereotactically placed laser probe. In metastatic disease, it has shown the most promise in the treatment of radiographically progressive lesions after initial stereotactic radiosurgery, whether due to recurrent metastatic disease or radiation necrosis. LITT has been demonstrated to provide clinical benefit in both cases, as discussed in the review below. With its minimal surgical footprint and short recovery period, LITT is further advantaged for pati

Abstract Approximately one-third of patients with epilepsy do not achieve adequate seizure control through medical management alone. Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is one of the most common forms of medically refractory epilepsy referred for surgical management.

Abstract:

Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a minimally invasive technique for treating intracranial tumors, originally introduced in 1983. Its use in neurosurgical procedures was historically limited by early technical difficulties related to the monitoring and control of the extent of thermal damage. The development of magnetic resonance thermography and its application to LITT have allowed for real-time thermal imaging and feedback control during laser energy delivery, allowing for precise and accurate provision of tissue hyperthermia.

In the case of laser interstital thermal therapy (LITT), thermally-ablated tumor remans in situ, allowing for a potential anti-tumor immune response. METHODS: Brain tumor cell lines (CT-2A) were stereotactically implanted into C57BL/6 mice. A 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser (Neuroblate, Monteris Medical) was used to ablate normal brain and tumor tissue.

Abstract:

Laser-induced thermotherapy (LITT) is an established minimally invasive percutaneous technique of tumor ablation. Nevertheless, there is a need to predict the effect of laser applications and optimize irradiation planning in LITT. Optical attributes (attenuation, absorption, scattering) change due to thermal denaturation. The work presents the possibility to identify these temperature-dependent parameters from given temperature measurements via an optimal control problem. The solvability of the optimal control problem is analyzed and results of successful implementations are shown.
