Through the latest non-invasive, minimally invasive and open neurosurgery treatments on the brain, spine and nerves, we help patients regain movement, comfort and abilities. Our neurosurgeons are highly trained in using precise, computer-guided intraoperative technology, surgical microscopes, lasers, 3D and fluoroscopy Neurosurgery, particularly deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus, is becoming increasingly used as a treatment option in PD. 113-114 Unfortunately, it is unlikely that older patients will be suitable for neurosurgical interventions as most of these procedures primarily improve drug-induced dyskinesia or improve "off" time in Having had such a high through put of brain tumours allows the group to perform quite complex neurosurgical procedures as a routine within the group members. The group has forged a very close association with neuro-oncology to form an extremely busy neuro-oncological service, a service that is often referred to from outside the confines of the Neurosurgery is a term that refers to any surgical procedure or operation having to do with the neurovascular system, and it is performed by a neurosurgeon. Neurosurgery is a highly specialized field requiring six to eight years of residency training in neurosurgery. This is after completing the required education to become a medical doctor population, but also to organized neurosurgery's initiative for training neurosurgeons in complex spinal surgery.
