Revolutionary probe enables surgeons to detect all invasive brain cancer cells during surgery.
Brain cancer patients may live longer thanks to a new cancer-detection method developed by researchers at the Montreal Neurological Institute, McGill University and the Polytechnique Montréal. The collaborative team has created a powerful new intraoperative probe for detecting cancer cells. The hand-held Raman spectroscopy probe enables surgeons, for the first time, to accurately detect virtually all invasive brain cancer cells in real time during surgery. … Continue reading Revolutionary probe enables surgeons to detect all invasive brain cancer cells during surgery.
