Treatment of malignant and benign brain tumors in HM Hospitales is performed at Neuroscience Center. Neurosurgeons of the Clinic use the only Siemens PET scanner Healthcare in Spain. It makes an image of brain structures and metabolic processes. A doctor receives precise information on how deep the formation has intergrown into neighboring tissues.
During the operation, MRI is used to control the removal of a tumor. In this case, the computer system directs and controls the actions of a surgeon. It accurately determines the location of the pathological area in the brain. A surgeon removes up to 98% of the tumor without damaging healthy tissues.
The diagnostic program is individualized for each patient. The selection of the best treatment for brain tumor depends on the overall health, the tumor location, and the symptoms.
