Specific areas of research of the ULB Gamma Knife Centre

  • Analysis of the disometric parameters for improving the preservation of hearing after the Gamma Knife treatment of vestibular schwannomas
  • Contribution of metabolic imaging by PET scan in the disometric planning of hypophysary adenomas treated by Gamma Knife radiosurgery
  • Role of stratification scales in the results of the treatment of cerebral metastases by Gamma Knife
  • Contribution of metabolic imaging by PET scan and spectroscopy by MRI in assessing the Gamma Knife post-surgical radionecrosis
  • Use of the metabolic imaging by PET scan in targeting gliomas
  • Modification of the tumour metabolism of gliomas after radiosurgery by Gamma Knife
  • Analysis of the blood flow in cerebral arterioveinous malformations by studying the dynamic flow sequences in angio-MRI after radiosurgical treatment by Gamma Knife
  • Optimisation of the dosimetric parameters of the radiosurgical treatment, by Gamma, of trigeminal nerve neuralgia to increase the pain control and reduce the incidence of trigeminal dysfunction
  • Analysis of radiosurgical irradiation effects on the cerebral vessels in an animal model
  • Role of dose inhomogeneity in the radiobiological effect of radiosurgical irradiation on an experimental model (rat striatum)
  • Radiobiological effect of radiosurgical irradiation of the trigeminal nerve in rats
  • Creation of a computerised database for the Gamma Knife Centre
