About this trial

The study aims to improve the surgical treatment of brain metastases through the use of advanced imaging techniques. The investigators are examining how intraoperative MRI (iMRI) can aid surgeons in precisely locating and removing tumors, with the potential to enhance surgical outcomes and reduce the need for additional procedures. While iMRI offers the promise of better tumor visualization during surgery, it is also associated with longer surgical times and may carry the risk of increased complications. This study seeks to carefully evaluate these aspects to determine the overall benefits and challenges of iMRI in brain metastasis surgeries. The ultimate aim is to enhance treatment effectiveness and improve recovery and health outcomes for participants dealing with brain metastases.
