About this trial
this study will investigate the relationship between tumor stiffness and adhesion in gliomas using MRE. By utilizing preoperative MRE and Intraoperative neuronavigation, followed by comprehensive molecular pathology analysis, we aim to explore the correlation of tumor stiffness and adhesion with molecular and genetic characteristics of gliomas. Additionally, the predictive value of MRE in terms of pathological staging and prognosis will be determined. This research may pave the way for improved clinical decision-making, personalized treatment approaches, and more accurate clinical trials for glioma patients.
