Brief Summary: This study explores whether DESI-MS can be used to identify cancerous vs noncancerous tissue during brain tumor surgery
Detailed Description: PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
I To explore the translational abilities of desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry DESI-MS as intraoperative diagnostic tool to
Ia Identify cancerous versus noncancerous tissue and estimate the percentage of tumor infiltration in tissue biopsies by monitoring depletion of N-acetylaspartate NAA and aberrations of the phospholipid signature of neurological tissue Ib Identify the presence of IDH mutations by monitoring the 2-hydroxyglutarate 2HG and therefore differentiate between IDH-mutant and wild-type gliomas
OUTLINE This is an observational study
Patients undergo tissue sample collection and DESI-MS during standard of care surgery and have their medical records reviewed on study Patients also undergo MRI per standard of care on study
