Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: pts who have primary or secondary brain tumorsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The study will prospectively enroll subjects who have primary or secondary brain tumors located near the motor pathway (corticospinal tract) or language pathway (arcuate fasciculus). This is a nonrandomized study in which each subject will receive the standard of care as per the treating neurosurgeon.
