获得最新的研究和治疗方法: 作为spore指定的中心，我们正在革新脑肿瘤治疗. We offer our patients the opportunity to take part in the latest clinical trials for brain tumor research.

方便的位置: UCLA Health offers brain cancer services in multiple locations across the greater Los Angeles region. 这意味着您可以在家附近接受最高质量的护理.

Our services

UCLA Health offers the most advanced diagnostic imaging so we can carefully plan your treatment. 我们的服务包括:

Brain mapping: Developed by experts at UCLA Health, brain mapping is a surgeon's roadmap. This innovative technology helps our team avoid or minimize disruption to the brain's critical function areas during surgery.
扩散张量成像(DTI): This noninvasive imaging test provides surgeons with information about how critical brain regions connect.
Functional MRI (fMRI): This test detects blood flow changes in areas of the brain activated by movement or speech. The fMRI data helps our doctors create surgical plans to avoid areas of the brain that control critical functions such as moving and talking.
图像分析: Our sophisticated team offers unrivaled imaging analysis to determine the tumor's growth patterns.
Image fusion: 这项技术使用功能磁共振成像的图像, DTS, 用MRS和PET来制作脑部的3D地图，以供手术时使用.

我们治疗的脑肿瘤

我们的顶尖专家治疗30多种脑肿瘤. 我们治疗的最常见肿瘤包括:

良性脑肿瘤

良性脑瘤是非癌性的，不会扩散到其他组织. 我们治疗的良性肿瘤包括:

2型神经纤维瘤病: 长在第八脑神经上的良性肿瘤. This nerve carries balance and sound signals from the inner ear to the brain. 这些肿瘤是由一种叫做神经纤维瘤病的遗传疾病引起的.
垂体腺瘤: 良性脑瘤一种生长缓慢的良性脑瘤. Pituitary adenomas can cause significant changes to hormones, disrupting the body's basic functions.
颅底肿瘤: A rare type of tumor that forms under the brain or at the bottom of the skull. 而颅底肿瘤通常是良性的, they can cause life-threatening problems because of their location near nerves and blood vessels.
Schwannoma: 良性肿瘤生长在脊髓和周围神经上. 这些肿瘤是由一种叫做神经鞘瘤病的遗传疾病引起的.

恶性脑肿瘤

恶性脑瘤是癌变的. 它们可以侵入周围组织并扩散到其他器官. 我们治疗的癌症肿瘤包括:

Glioma: 一种最常见的脑肿瘤. Gliomas grow inside the cerebrum's star-shaped glial cells, which support nerve function.
Astrocytoma: 起源于星形胶质细胞的肿瘤, 星形胶质细胞在大脑中形成支持组织的星形胶质细胞.
Meningioma: A slow-growing tumor that forms in the meninges, the layer of tissue that covers the brain and spine.
转移性脑瘤: A cancerous growth that starts in another part of the body and spreads to the brain.

我们提供脑肿瘤治疗

Our oncologists provide patients with lifesaving treatments, including:

非手术脑肿瘤治疗

医生可以不通过手术治疗一些脑肿瘤. 治疗方法包括:

Chemotherapy: 一种用于杀死癌细胞的药物组合. 通过基因检测和创新的分娩方法, UCLA Health offers personalized chemotherapy plans for people with brain tumors.
放射治疗: 对于更具侵袭性的肿瘤, our radiation oncologists target and kill malignant cells with high levels of radiation.
靶向治疗: Therapies that attack specific parts or functions of brain cancer cells or boost the body's natural ability to fight tumor cells.
临床试验: From personalized cancer vaccines to leading-edge glioblastoma medications, UCLA Health's Brain Tumor Center discovers and develops first-of-its-kind treatments for a wide range of brain cancers.

脑肿瘤手术

作为全国顶尖的神经外科项目之一, 我们安全地切除曾经被认为无法手术的肿瘤. 我们的神经外科医生每年要做500多例手术. We offer:

微创神经外科

For certain tumors, our neurosurgeons can remove brain cancer without having to open the skull. 微创脑肿瘤手术包括:

立体定向激光消融: 一种用激光能量摧毁肿瘤的手术. 医生使用核磁共振成像将激光引导到正确的位置. This treatment is ideal for tumors we can't reach with traditional surgical techniques.
内窥镜手术: 使用带灯的柔性管(内窥镜)的外科手术, 照相机和特殊仪器来接近肿瘤. We typically insert the scope through the nose to remove pituitary tumors.
锁眼颅骨切开术: With this endoscopic procedure, surgeons make a keyhole-like incision in the eyebrow. They then remove pituitary tumors or other tumors near the front of the brain.

先进的神经外科

有时我们的外科医生必须打开颅骨切除脑肿瘤. UCLA Health neurosurgeons are some of the most experienced in the country. We can successfully operate on tumors that were previously thought to be inoperable.

我们开创了清醒开颅术. 如果肿瘤位于关键功能区域, 外科医生在手术过程中会让病人保持清醒. 清醒开颅术帮助我们的专家 avoid the brain's critical function areas by having patients respond to stimuli during surgery.
