| Research Abstract |
This study aimed at developing novel brain interstitial drug delivery system for the treatment of central nervous system disorders. Recently we performed basic and clinical study using convection-enhanced delivery (CED). Convection-enhanced delivery (CED) is a local infusion technique that delivers various molecules to the central nervous system. We firstdeveloped real-time MRI guided monitoring system. In this system, we infuse the mixture of chemotherapeutic agent; ACNU with Gd-DTPA for real-time monitoring using MRI. Subsequently, we developed computational simulating system that predicts the distribution of Gd-DTPA in a brainstem of non-human primate. In addition, we developed a novel drug delivery apparatus.
