recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Neurosurgical Review"

DOI: 10.1007/s10143-019-01094-4

Abstract: Currently, there is no known time frame when the patients are the most responsive during awake craniotomy. The aim of this work is therefore to determine when the patient has the shortest reaction time and… read more here.
