Clinical Trial: Extracellular Impact of Ultrasound-induced Blood-brain Barrier Disruption
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Brain Tumor
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: Intraoperative Evaluation of Focused Ultrasound-induced Blood-brain Barrier Disruption
Brief Summary:
This study seeks to determine the impact of focused ultrasound (FUS) on the composition of the tumor extracellular microenvironment.Researchers will evaluate regions that are very abnormal, as well as regions that have less evidence of disease.A sub-portion of each of these areas will be targeted by focused ultrasound.Microdialysis catheters will then be placd into each region that has and has not been exposed to FUS (total of 4 catheters) to determine how FUS impacts the the brain and tumor extracellular…
