Care for Traumatic Brain Injury
During computer-guided brain surgery, neurosurgeons use imaging technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to do intraoperative MRI-guided surgery and computerized tomography (CT) to create a 3D model of your brain. This model allows the neurosurgeon to plan the safest way to treat your condition. During your surgery, the computer system precisely guides your surgeon to the area(s) of your brain requiring treatment. Computer-assisted techniques may be used to treat brain tumors, arteriovenous malformations and other lesions.
