What is a "stereotactic surgery"?
A stereotactic surgery is a medical procedure that uses precise coordination and imaging to locate and treat abnormalities in the body, typically in the brain. It allows surgeons to target specific areas accurately using specialized equipment and imaging techniques, without the need for large surgical cuts. Stereotactic surgery is often used for tissue sampling, removing tumors, or delivering precise doses of radiation to treat tumors or other conditions. This approach minimizes damage to surrounding healthy tissue and can lead to faster recovery times compared to traditional surgery.
