Stereotactic Surgery
Stereotactic Surgery is a minimally invasive technique used to precisely target specific areas within the body, often in the brain. It utilizes advanced imaging technology, such as MRI or CT scans, to create a three-dimensional map of the area being treated. This allows surgeons to accurately deliver treatments, such as radiation or biopsies, while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.
This method is commonly used for various conditions, including tumors, vascular malformations, and certain neurological disorders. By using a frame or a computer-guided system, stereotactic surgery enhances the precision of surgical interventions, leading to improved outcomes and reduced recovery times for patients.
