The book is logically organized, starting with a foundation of fundamental knowledge, then progressing to practical applications. Chapters focus on the skills necessary to perform glioma surgery, specific techniques, and systematic approaches to gliomas in different brain regions.Numerous case examples illuminate concepts introduced earlier in the book and explain how to perform these proceduresAbout 30 high quality videos posted online provide insightful procedural guidanceThe role of connectomic imaging in visualizing the cerebrum, and other innovative techniques including awake brain mapping and diffusion tensor tractographyNeurosurgeons who embrace the concepts in this book will realize they can change the glioma treatment paradigm.
