Neurosurgical Focus
Volume 50: Issue 1 (Jan 2021): Operative Imaging and Visualization
All articles in Neurosurgical Focus are freely available.
In their introduction to this month’s issue, the topic editors — Paul Larson, Peter Nakaji, Walter Stummer and John Pollina — state:
“This issue of Neurosurgical Focus explores the next generation of operative imaging and visualization techniques. New surgical planning tools show promise for improving patient safety and surgical efficiency. Visualization techniques such as intraoperative fluorescence and advanced neuroendoscopy can provide real-time feedback during demanding intracranial and spinal procedures. Finally, the advent of augmented reality gives surgeons the potential for an environment in which imaging and direct visualization can coexist in an immersive, unobtrusive way.”
Neurosurgical Focus: Video
Volume 4: Issue 1 (Jan 2021): Posterior Fossa Arteriovenous Malformations
All articles in Neurosurgical Focus: Video are open access and freely available.
From the January issue topic editors, Mustafa K. Baskaya, Adib A. Abla, Daniel L. Barrow and Adam S. Arthur:
“We have selected 15 videos from four continents. These videos were chosen for their demonstration of state-of-the-art techniques in the treatment of posterior fossa AVMs via microsurgical resection. This collection of videos by masters in the field of neurovascular surgery illustrates surgical decision-making, technical mastery, operative nuances, technological innovations and complication avoidance, demonstrating the beauty and danger of AVMs in the posterior fossa location.
“It is our hope that this collection of videos serves as an educational tool for neurosurgical trainees in understanding these lesions, while also providing an update on the current state of surgical treatments for more experienced clinicians.”
