Neuro Radiological Surgery
Neuro radiological surgery, also known as neuroradiology, is a specialized field that involves the use of imaging techniques to guide surgical procedures in the brain and nervous system. Here are some of the latest innovations in neuro radiological surgery:
Navigation systems: Navigation systems use imaging data, such as MRI or CT scans, to create a 3D map of the brain. Surgeons can use this map to navigate through the brain during surgery and perform more precise and accurate procedures.
Intraoperative MRI: Intraoperative MRI (iMRI) allows surgeons to take real-time images of the brain during surgery. This helps them see the tumor and surrounding tissue more clearly, and adjust their approach as needed to remove as much of the tumor as possible.
Stereotactic radiosurgery: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a non-invasive technique that uses high-dose radiation to treat brain tumors and other conditions. SRS can be performed using a variety of imaging techniques, including MRI, CT scans, and PET scans, to precisely target the tumor while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.
