Frozen-section analysis is the current standard for the intraoperative diagnosis of brain tumors. Intraoperative confocal microscopy is an emerging technology with the potential to visualize tumor histopathological features and cell morphology in real time. The authors report their findings using this new intraoperative technology in vivo with sodium fluorescein contrast during the course of 50 microsurgical tumor resections.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 February 2019.
All research outputs
#6,769,035
of 34,365,356 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Neurosurgery
#2,238
of 8,767 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#50,666
of 304,888 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Neurosurgery
#9
of 40 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,365,356 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 8,767 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 304,888 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 40 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
