Brief Summary:
Evaluation of impact of use of 3D ultrasound in brain tumor surgery on extend of resection. Benefit for surgery, neurological outcome, accuracy and image quality are secondary outcome parameters. Control group is a retrospective matched pair cohort.

No Intervention: retrospective matched pair arm
no use of intraoperative ultrasound before intraoperative MRI



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Extent of resection [ Time Frame: 48 hours after surgery ]
    Volumetric assessment of residual T1 contrast enhancement or FLAIR signal changes in enhancing and non-enhancing glioma, respectively.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. image quality [ Time Frame: during surgery ]
    ultrasound image quality, both for 2D and 3D as rated by surgeon and scored from 1(best) to 6 (worst).

  2. neurological outcome [ Time Frame: both after surgery and at 3 months ]
    both at discharge and at 3 months follow up using NIHSS Score

  3. Accuracy of device [ Time Frame: during surgery ]
    ultrasound image acuracy compared to preoperative MRI, both for 2D and 3D as rated by surgeon and scored from 1(best) to 6 (worst), including rating of brainshift and navigation inaccuracy.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. brainshift during surgery [ Time Frame: during surgery ]
    brainshift in mm during surgery comparing preoperative landmarks with intraoperative landmarks in ultrasound and intraooperative MRI
