Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Purpose of the study is to answer the question whether confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE, also named 'optical biopsy') might improve the results of medically necessary neurosurgery to prove practicability, safety and harmlessness of CLE during neurosurgical procedures

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In patients requiring neurosurgical oncological Intervention using endoscopic devices, a mini laser probe will be administered through the endoscopic device to characterize in vivo the tissue by thousandfold magnification down to the cellular level (so-called optical biopsy). Magnification is presented to the neurosurgeon in time to better differentiate between healthy and pathological tissue. Post-surgery results of in-vivo Differentiation will then be compared to histocytopathological findings.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* patients administered to the department of neurosurgery requiring neurosurgery due to either diagnosed gliomata (40 patients) or diagnosed subcranial tumors adjacent to or already invading neuronal structures (20 patients)
* patients having given informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

* severe concomitant diseases probably negatively influencing the participation in this clinical trial
* cardial infarction or stroke within the preceding 12 months
* Treatment resistant hypertonus (systolic blood pressure \>200 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure \>120 mmHg or a combination of both
* Pulmonic diseases that might result in an advanced risk for anesthetic measurements
* Patients being vaccinated with live vaccines (14 days Prior) or contra Influenza (7 days Prior) to start of the study
* All concomitant findings that might increase in the eyes of the investigator the risk of participation
