Laser and ultrasound technology in aggressive management of central nervous system tumors.
Tumors within the brain and spinal cord can have far-reaching effects on the health and long-term survival of the patient. In addition, implications of the diagnosis place stress upon the family unit. Until recently, aggressive management of these lesions carried the risk of additional neurological injury. With the rapidly expanding use of lasers, ultrasonic aspiration and real-time intraoperative ultrasonography, it is possible to aggressively resect tumors from within critical areas of the central nervous system, including the spinal cord. Additionally, it is possible to provide real-time evaluation of the operative field to assess tumor volume definition and completeness of tumor resection. This minimizes the risk of surgical injury and leads to improved patient outcomes.
