MRI Assisted Brain Tumor Surgery in India

MRI Guided Brain Tumor Surgery in India

MRI Guided Brain Tumor Surgery is an advanced imaging treatment technique developed to enable neurosurgeons with intra-operative MRI to aid in the removal of complex and difficult-to-access brain tumors during surgery. The technique involves use of a powerful computer system that precisely helps neurosurgeon locate a lesion, plan each step of the procedure on computer screen and find out the ideal access to the tumor before performing the operation.

The technique is particularly helpful in treating a tumor that has difficult accessibility such as it is located deep inside the brain. During the procedure, the instrument movement is tracked very precisely by the computer providing surgeon with total control inside the brain with the help of real-time imaging. The technique also helps the surgeon to check if the tumor has been removed.

Minimaly Invasive Brain Tumor Surgery

Endoscopic removal of tumor through nose (Expanded Endoscopic Trans-Nasal Approach) Endoscpoic neurosurgery involves the insertion of an endoscope, or tiny video camera, through a small incision to treat a range of neurological conditions. The result is

  • Faster and simpler procedure.
  • Reduced post-operative complications.
  • Faster recovery.
  • Less pain and scarring.

The endoscopic trans-nasal approach is performed through the nostrils. A natural passage way exists at the back end of the nose leading into the sphenoid sinus (an air filled cavity in the depth of the skull), which can be enlarged so that the endoscope and instruments can pass into this air filled cavity. From this region the sella turcica is easily accessed, which is the location of pituitary gland. Neurosurgeons use this route normally to remove the tumor from pituitary (the master glad).
