Understanding Brain Surgery
Brain surgery is performed to address neurological disorders, tumors, vascular abnormalities, and traumatic injuries affecting the brain. At Covenant Spine and Neurology, we prioritize precision, patient safety, and the latest advancements in neurosurgery to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Our neurosurgeons specialize in Stereotactic Surgery, an advanced technique that enables precise mapping of the brain during surgery. This approach allows us to target abnormalities with pinpoint accuracy, reducing the risk of complications and ensuring minimal disruption to healthy brain tissue.
Stereotactic Surgery: Advanced Precision in Brain Surgery
Stereotactic Surgery, also known as surgical navigation, is a highly sophisticated technique that uses real-time imaging technology to guide the neurosurgeon during the procedure. This minimally invasive approach allows for the precise removal of tumors or abnormal tissue while preserving vital brain structures.
Key benefits of Stereotactic Surgery include:
- Real-time brain mapping: Ensures precise localization of tumors and lesions.
- Minimized risk of damage: Reduces the impact on surrounding healthy brain tissue.
- Greater accuracy in tumor removal: Helps remove as much of the tumor as possible.
- Shorter recovery times: Less invasive techniques lead to quicker healing and reduced hospital stays.
Conditions Treated with Brain Surgery
