As minimally invasive surgery becomes the standard of care in neurosurgery, it is imperative that surgeons become skilled in the use of image-guided techniques. Increasing evidence shows these procedures can be more efficient, minimize exposure, define resection boundaries, and optimize hardware placement.
This outstanding book provides an in-depth analysis of current and developing applications in a rapidly growing field. A highly acclaimed team of authors share their experience with image-guided technology, outlining the benefits and limitations of each procedure.
Key Features:
·Full analysis of current and future applications of image-guided procedures
·Detailed descriptions of all procedures, from basic to the most advanced
·An international "who's who" of contributors, all of whom have significantly advanced the field of image-guided surgery
·Valuable information that leads to more effective results and optimal patient care
The book begins with an overview of image-guided neurosurgery, and then continues with specific cranial and spinal procedures. You'll get full coverage of instrumentation and clinical applications for topics such as: videotactic neurosurgery, needle biopsy, cranial and spinal navigation, and much more!
Here is the clinical reference that neurosurgeons, orthopaedic surgeons, and residents need to get the most up-to-date assessment of this vital field and stay at the forefront of an exciting new technology.
