Neurosurgical Intraoperative Histology Techniques

Abstract

Luis Ramón

Neurosurgical intraoperative histology techniques have significantly advanced in recent years, providing surgeons with real-time diagnostic information during surgical procedures. This abstract provides an overview of various techniques employed in intraoperative histology, including frozen section analysis, touch imprint cytology and rapid immunohistochemistry. These methods enable rapid pathological assessment of tissue samples, aiding in surgical decision-making and improving patient outcomes. Furthermore, emerging technologies such as stimulated Raman scattering microscopy and confocal microscopy offer high-resolution imaging capabilities, enhancing intraoperative tissue visualization. This abstract highlights the clinical relevance and utility of these techniques in guiding neurosurgical interventions, reducing operative time and minimizing the need for subsequent reoperations.
