Popis: Objective: In glioma surgery 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) fluorescence is indicative of tumor invasion and fluorescence-assisted resection correlates with improved progression free survival. Recent studies report that brain metastases exhibit considerable peritumoral invasion, which is dependent on[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
