====== Shinoda staging system ======
The surgical [[approach]] to [[glioblastoma]] is highly variable. A staging system could be used to examine the impact of [[extent of resection]], monitor post-operative complications, and stratify patients in clinical trials. 

The findings of Capellades et al., suggested that the Shinoda staging system could be improved by including T2/FLAIR sequences and a more adequate weighting of [[eloquent area]]s
