Image-Guided Neurosurgery
About Image-Guided Neurosurgery
Image-guided neurosurgery is an advanced surgical technology that uses real-time imaging and computer-assisted navigation to improve precision during brain and spine surgery. The system helps neurosurgeons accurately identify surgical targets while minimizing damage to healthy tissue. It significantly improves surgical safety and accuracy.
Overview
The technology includes: MRI and CT-based navigation systems Real-time surgical guidance Brain mapping integration Precision localization tools Minimally invasive surgical assistance Image-guided systems are used in: Brain tumor surgery Spine surgery Biopsy procedures Skull base surgery Deep brain lesion treatment The technology improves surgical planning and helps reduce complications.
