1. Pre-operative Vs. Post-operative Radiosurgery For Metastatic Brain Tumors

   Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the time of a first occurrence of either: local recurrence, leptomeningeal disease, or symptomatic radiation brain necrosis in patients with brain metastases who receive SRS prior to surgery as compared to patients who receive surgery prior to SRS.

    

2. A Study for Cerebral Open Flow Microperfusion

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of intra-operative microperfusion during a planned neurosurgical resection of diseased brain parenchyma, including either an epileptic focus requiring temporal lobectomy or a glioma. Devices used for microperfusion are Joanneum Research’s cerebral open flow microperfusion (OFM) catheters, push and pull tubing, and MPP102-II pump.

3. CraniSeal Post Approval Study

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   To collect post-approval data comparing the safety and effectiveness of CraniSeal Dural Sealant to DuraSeal Dural Sealant. The study has been powered specifically to determine whether the CraniSeal device when used as an adjunct to sutured dural closure following elective cranial surgery is no worse than (i.e., non-inferior) to the DuraSeal device with respect to proportion of subjects free from post-operative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. Additional safety outcomes (i.e., surgical site infections and adverse events/device-related adverse events) will also be captured and compared.

4. Image-based Mapping Of Brain Tumors

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to combine MRI images with histologic and genetic analysis of cancer (from blood and tissue samples) to improve the overall accuracy of diagnosis and effectiveness of cancer treatment.

    

5. A Study to Evaluate Electrophysiology of Deep Brain Stimulation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary purpose of this study is to map the electrophysiological properties of deep brain stimulation (DBS) targets and associated areas by analyzing signals recorded for clinical purposes.  Electrophysiological properties such as spike statistics, power spectral density, spike-field coupling, and phase-amplitude coupling may be correlated to anatomic structures.  An atlas with these properties could improve DBS lead targeting.

6. Dynamic Evaluation Of Spinal Alignment And Balance In Adults With Spinal Deformity Using Momentum Spine

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Momentum Spine™ application, with its newly developed dynamic spinal metrics, can accurately and feasibly assess postural parameters in adults with spinal deformity across the continuum of care: conservative management, before and after spinal surgery.

7. Treatment Resistant Depression Subcallosal Cingulate Network

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of bilateral stimulation of the SCCwm using the Infinity DBS system as an adjunctive treatment of non-psychotic unipolar Major Depression Disorder (MDD) for adults who are experiencing an Major Depressive Episode (MDE) with inadequate response to 4 or more antidepressant treatments.

8. Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption (BBBD) For Liquid Biopsy In Subjects With GlioBlastoma Brain Tumors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of using Exablate Model 4000 Type-2.0/2.1 in adults with Glioblastoma brain tumors to increase temporarily the permeability of the blood brain barrier, allowing increased passage of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) for sampling and analysis.

9. A Registry to Follow Long-Term Outcomes for Mother and Child Pairs After Fetal Surgery for Spina Bifida

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to form a registry of data on the long term physical and mental health outcomes of the mother and child following fetal surgical repair for spina bifida.

10. A Registry Called Every Child for Collecting Data and Biology Specimens on Younger Patients with Cancer

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this registry called Every Child, is to collect data and biospecimens from multiple body sources for younger patients with cancer over time. Gathering health information over time from younger patients with cancer may help doctors find better methods of treatment and on-going care.
