MUSC's Department of Neurological Surgery is South Carolina's
only academic neurosurgical program. Only here do the benefits
of the most advanced, highest technology patient care, cutting
edge neurosurgical research and advanced neurosurgical education
come together in a single location to provide the synergy that
leads to solutions to complex neurosurgical problems and the unwavering
search for the best possible outcomes.
ADVANCED, HIGH TECHNOLOGY PATIENT CARE
-
Intraoperative frameless image guidance (allows the surgeon
to follow the location of the operation on the CT on MRI scan).
-
Computerized framed stereotaxis (particularly for very precise
deep brain stimulation and lesioning, provides a full 2 dimensional
map of the brain with the path of the probe displayed).
-
Real-time intraoperative ultrasound (images changes during
surgery, linked to frameless image guidance) Neuroendoscopy
(utilizing small {1-6 mm} scopes to perform or assist brain
and spinal surgery).
-
Stereotactic radiosurgery with multimicroleaf columniation
(precisely focused radiation to create, control or destroy
lesions in the brain without open surgery).
