Diagnosis at SIMS

Our Best neurologist Team uses computed tomography (CT scanning) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify a brain tumor. Certain sequences of MRI can help the surgeon plan tumor resection based on the location of the brain’s normal nerve pathways.

In surgery, intraoperative MRI is used to monitor tissue biopsies and removal of the tumor. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is used to analyze the chemical composition of the tumor and to determine the existence of the MRI lesions. Positron emission tomography (PET scan) can help to detect recurrent brain tumors.

Sometimes a biopsy is the only way to make a definitive diagnosis of a brain tumor. The neurosurgeon performs the biopsy and the pathologist makes the final diagnosis, determining whether the tumor appears benign or malignant, and identifying it accordingly.
