Gamma Knife RadioSurgery in India | Advanced Non Surgical Treatment for Brain Tumors

Description:

Gamma knife radio surgery is a non-invasive procedure to treat benign and malignant brain tumors. The procedure involves operating on the diseased brain tissue by directing highly-focused beams of ionizing radiation with high precision. The precise dosage of radiation destroys intra-cranial as well as extra-cranial tumors and other lesions that are inaccessible for open surgery. There are many nervous diseases for which conventional surgery is inadvisable because of damage to the nearby arteries, veins and vital structures. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Gamma Knife RadioSurgery in India
Gamma knife surgery is the latest technique which
is widely used for treatment of Arterio-venous
malformations in brain and other brain disorders
such as trigeminal neuralgia. Despite the name,
gamma knife does not involve a blade or a knife.
The gamma knife rays are collimated beam of
radiations that target a specific tumor or other
targeted tissues. The best part of the treatment
is that the rays are targeted in such a way that
they do not harm the surrounding healthy tissue.
Thus there are minimal risks involved with the
surgery. It is thus an innovative surgery to
treat even complex brain tumors and other
functional disorders of the brain. It is the only
radiation therapy system cleared by FDA to
irradiate brain metastases.

Advanced Non Surgical Treatment for Brain Tumors
Gamma knife is now the most accepted and widely
used radio surgery treatment in the world for
brain tumors. About half a million people have
been treated with Gamma knife surgery, and it's
the only Radiation Therapy System cleared by the
FDA for irradiating brain metastases. Gamma knife
surgery, despite the name, there is no blade or
knife - it's called Gamma knife because radio
surgery (one-session treatment) has such a
dramatic and precise effect in the target zone
that the changes are considered 'surgical.' So
there's no incision or blood, and minimal risk of
complications.
The device aims gamma radiation through a target
point in the patient's brain. The patient wears a
specialized helmet that is surgically fixed to
the skull, so that the brain tumor remains
stationary at the target point of the gamma rays.
An ablative dose of radiation is thereby sent
through the tumor in one treatment session, while
surrounding brain tissues are relatively spared.

Gamma Knife radiosurgery
Gamma Knife radiosurgery has proven effective for
patients with benign or malignant brain tumors up
to 4 centimeters in size, vascular malformations
such as an arteriovenous malformation (AVM), pain
or other functional problems. The risks of gamma
knife radiosurgery treatment are very low, and
complications are related to the condition being
treated.
Gamma-Ray Stereotactic Treatment System. The
Gamma Knife instrument put many gamma-ray beams
from different angles and directions irradiate to
body, making them all together to form the focus
point. Since each dose of radiation beam is very
small, it basically does not cause damage to
human tissues which it through. As long as the
ray focuses on the lesion, it can be as precise
as a scalpel to destroy the lesion, with no
trauma, no hemorrhage, no infection, no pain, and
also reach rapid, safe, reliable magical effect.
