A new study led by investigators from Mass General Brigham trialed stereotactic (targeted) brain-directed radiation in 100 patients with small cell lung cancer and brain metastases, finding they ...

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) sends narrow beams of radiation into your cancer. The beams can focus on a tumor of any size or shape. It causes little damage to nearby healthy cells. If you have only ...

Stereotactic surgery uses focused radiation to damage nerve tissue (trigeminal nerve) to prevent or disrupt pain signals in your brain. We can use stereotactic radiosurgery to treat trigeminal ...

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is increasingly used to treat brain metastases. The technique uses advanced, computer-guided imaging to deliver a highly targeted and intense dose of photon radiation.

The one-year, CAST-accredited Stereotactic, Functional and Epilepsy Neurosurgery Fellowship at the University of Alabama at Birmingham offers comprehensive subspecialty training in functional ...

Graduate student Lu Xu wears a device designed by engineers, at Washington University in St. Louis, that targets ultrasound waves to precise spots in the brain. Such targeting is the first step in a ...

A 74-year-old man with an unremarkable medical history noted a progressive gait disorder in the months prior to admission. His wife recalled increased sleepiness and loss of initiative. After having ...
