A safe method of brain tumor removal

Brain tumors used to be extremely difficult to operate on. Surgeons were unable to accurately determine the boundary between diseased and healthy brain tissue. This had a high degree of danger for the patient.

In an effort to reduce the level of risk, German medical experts, led by neurosurgeon Gabriele Schackert, MD, and leading specialists from the Neuro-Head Center (Center for Neurosurgery) in Munich at the Rechts der Isar «Right of Isar» clinic, have developed a new method of brain tumor removal that guarantees patient safety. Its name is Intraoperative Optical Imaging. The new method has been successfully tested on 103 patients and has enabled neurosurgeons to look forward to the future.

According to Dr. Schuckert, this method does not require the use of medication and does not alter the tissue. This is made possible by illuminating the patient’s brain with a special lamp.

According to scientists, when the brain is exposed to a beam of light, healthy areas of the brain are activated, their blood supply is increased, and the degree of light absorption is much higher. Thus, it is possible to see healthy areas during surgery in real time. This enables the operating surgeon not to touch or alter the tissue surrounding the pathological focus.

Thanks to the rapid introduction of scientific achievements into practice, treatment in Germany becomes not only effective, but also as safe as possible for the patient. German doctors have made great strides in this direction, and many patients now have a great chance to cure a terrible disease without risk to their health.

It is worth saying that German specialists have long conducted such studies, aiming to minimize the danger to their patients. These searches have led to the desired result — it is becoming increasingly safe to be treated in Germany.

The IOI method is not just innovative — it is unique.

Consequently, only in Germany will such operations be performed at such a high level in the near future.

However, the scientists do not stop there. They plan to improve the method and develop new ways of stimulating the areas responsible for sense perception. Already now the method in use is yielding amazing results!

Now patients who choose to be treated in Germany are not afraid of such an operation as removal of a brain tumor. According to doctors, this factor has a positive effect on the psyche of patients and speeds up the recovery period after the operation. After all, previously most people were so much afraid of its implementation that they simply did not dare to «lie under the knife». Now the situation has changed for the better for both patients and doctors.

In Munich, this method of surgery is successfully used at the Neuro-Head Center of the Rechts der Isar Clinic «Right of Isar».

As a result, the brain tumor is successfully treated by neurosurgeons in Munich.
