Article Title: Toward precision medicine: Promising areas of research in glioma
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To present and describe three emerging areas of glioma research: volumetric imaging analysis, molecular profiling, and the use of liquid biopsies. DATA SOURCES: Published manuscripts and textbook chapters. CONCLUSION: As new imaging and molecular technologies for the patient with glioma become main-stream, precise care can be individualized and personalized. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Oncology nurses caring for patients with gliomas can gain knowledge of emerging research and help increase accessibility to this technology by referring patients to clinical trials that apply this technology
