Handheld robot for minimally invasive neurosurgery
This study is testing a new, small robotic tool called Panda, designed to help surgeons remove brain tumours (pituitary adenomas) more precisely through keyhole surgery. It's an early-stage study to see if the tool is safe and can be used effectively alongside usual surgery.

Molecular Pituitary Imaging Using 18F-FET PET
This study compares two types of special scans (FET-PET and Met-PET) to see if they are equally good at finding growths called pituitary adenomas. These growths are in a gland in your brain. Researchers want to know if a newer, easier scan works as well as an older one.

AI in Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery
This study looks at using artificial intelligence (AI) during brain surgery for a specific type of brain tumour. The AI helps the surgical team understand what's happening without bothering the main surgeon, aiming to improve how doctors are trained and how the team works together.

DOTATOC PET/CT for Imaging NET Patients
This study looks at a new type of scan called 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT for checking on neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) and similar growths. It compares it to a standard scan to see if it’s better at finding these conditions safely.

The Impact of Endoscopic Endonasal Skull Base Surgery on Olfaction
This study looks at how a specific brain surgery, called endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery, affects a person's sense of smell. Researchers want to understand if and why smell changes after this type of operation.
