Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Pineal and tectal tumors are most common brain tumors causing obstruction of the aqueduct and required CSF diversion procedures. Success rate of ETV in this type of hydrocephalus is definitely high. In addition, endoscopic approach allows for sampling of CSF, direct visualization of the tumor with surrounding structures, and biopsy for decision-making of therapeutic strategy. Therefore, simultaneous ETV and endoscopic biopsy has become an important procedure lately. MR images of sagittal section, especially with high resolution, are extremely useful for preoperative evaluation. Combination of trajectory and type of endoscope (i.e., rigid-, fiber-, and videoscope) should be considered depending on changes in the ventricular anatomy as well as size of tumors and types of existing equipment.
