    Abstract Standardized MRI acquisition protocols are crucial for reducing the measurement and interpretation variability associated with response assessment in brain tumor clinical trials. The main challenge is that standardized protocols should ensure high image quality while maximizing the number of institutions meeting the acquisition requirements. In recent years, extensive effort has been made by consensus groups to propose different "ideal" and "minimum requirements" brain tumor imaging protocols (BTIPs) for gliomas, brain metastases (BM), and primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCSNL). In clinical practice, BTIPs for clinical trials can be easily integrated with additional MRI sequences that may be desired for clinical patient management at individual sites. In this review, we summarize the general concepts behind the choice and timing of sequences included in the current recommended BTIPs, we provide a comparative overview, and discuss tips and caveats to integrate additional clinical or research sequences while preserving the recommended BTIPs. Finally, we also reflect on potential future directions for brain tumor imaging in clinical trials.

    Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a commonly used treatment for medically refractory movement disorders and epilepsy. Intraoperative testing of electrode impedances is routinely done during DBS surgery to identify electrical conduction defects in the system. We present two illustrative cases involving elevated intraoperative impedances. In the first case, the temporal evolution of impedance changes and a postoperative head CT were consistent with a small and slowly resolving air collection along the lead. In the second case, an abnormally high impedance reading was observed at a single electrode and then "transferred" to be observed at an adjacent electrode upon adjustments of the electrode position, likely due to small air collection at a fixed position in the brain tissue. In both cases, careful troubleshooting allowed identification of the issue and avoidance of unnecessary surgical revisions. A thorough understanding of the possible sources of, and troubleshooting for, abnormal impedance readings is needed for effective intraoperative DBS monitoring.

    Abstract The fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of tumors of the central nervous system (CNS), published in 2021, introduces major shifts in the classification of brain and spine tumors. These changes were necessitated by rapidly increasing knowledge of CNS tumor biology and therapies, much of which is based on molecular methods in tumor diagnosis. The growing complexity of CNS tumor genetics has required reorganization of tumor groups and acknowledgment of new tumor entities. For radiologists interpreting neuroimaging studies, proficiency with these updates is critical in providing excellent patient care. This review will focus on new or revised CNS tumor types and subtypes, beyond infiltrating glioma (described in part 1 of this series), with an emphasis on imaging features.

    Abstract Background: Open surgical treatment of insular epilepsy holds particular risk of injury to middle cerebral artery branches, the operculum (through retraction), and adjacent language-related white matter tracts in the language-dominant hemisphere. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is a surgical alternative that allows precise lesioning with potentially less operative risk. The authors presented the case of a 13-year-old girl with intractable, MRI-negative, left (dominant hemisphere) insular epilepsy that was treated with LITT. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography was used to aid full posterior insular lesioning in the region of stereo electroencephalography-determined seizure onset while avoiding thermal injury to the language-related superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF)/arcuate fasciculus (AF) and inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFOF).
    Observations: DTI tractography was used successfully in planning insular LITT and facilitated a robust insular ablation with sharp margins at the interfaces with the SLF/AF and IFOF. These tracts were spared, and no neurological deficits were induced through LITT.
    Lessons: Although it is technically demanding and has important limitations that must be understood, clinically available DTI tractography adds precision and confidence to insular laser ablation when used to protect important language-related white matter tracts.

    Abstract The fifth edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors of the central nervous system, published in 2021, contains substantial updates in the classification of tumor types. Many of these changes are relevant to radiologists, including "big picture" changes to tumor diagnosis methods, nomenclature, and grading, which apply broadly to many or all central nervous system tumor types, as well as the addition, elimination, and renaming of multiple specific tumor types. Radiologists are integral in interpreting brain tumor imaging studies and have a considerable impact on patient care. Thus, radiologists must be aware of pertinent changes in the field. Staying updated with the most current guidelines allows radiologists to be informed and effective at multidisciplinary tumor boards and in interactions with colleagues in neuro-oncology, neurosurgery, radiation oncology, and neuropathology. This review represents the first of a two-installment review series on the most recent changes to the WHO brain tumor classification system. This first installment focuses on the changes to the classification of adult and pediatric gliomas of greatest relevance for radiologists.
