Abstract

Nanotechnology can improve neurosurgery as it allows surgeons to define glioma boundaries and deduce treatment options with great sensitivity through real-time visual guidance. The focus of this chapter is to provide an overview of intraoperative neuroimaging techniques and their applications in image-guided tumor resection. Various nanomaterial-mediated neuromodulations and neural interfaces that can be used during preoperative surgical planning are highlighted. The possibility of targeted nanoparticles for use in clinical imaging, particularly multimodal and therapeutic methods, is also discussed.
