Brain tumors occur when uncontrolled growth of cells forms a lump in the brain. Brain tumors, just like cancer can grow and spread to any other part of the body. Its symptoms mainly depend on where it is located and how big it is. Complete removal of the tumor is so far the best-known treatment for brain tumors.
One of the leading developments in the neurosurgical techniques is the usage of stereotactic radiosurgery. This tool is used for non-invasive treatment of tumors in the lungs, liver, and other parts of the body.
Dr. Gil Lederman is a renowned and respected doctor, with over twenty years of experience in stereotactic radiosurgery. He recommends this type of treatment to most of his tumor patients, due to the following reasons:
- It is performed without incision or sedation.
- It produces extremely conformal radiation beam that matches with the tumor’s shape, without any harmful effects to healthy brain tissues.
- This is the perfect treatment option for brain tumor patients, who are not recommended for a surgery, or want to go with a noninvasive option.
- Right after this treatment, patients can return to their daily life.
- It includes the usage of invasive head frame for treatment, which rules out the need for local anesthesia.
This treatment is not for every patient. Hence, you must consult someone as experienced as Dr. Gil Lederman, for proper guidance.
