Physicians at the NeuroTexas Institute use image-guided surgery to accurately perform complex surgeries involving the brain and spine. Image-guided surgery combines advanced diagnostic imaging technology, such as MRIs and CT scans, with specialized computers and software. This provides our surgeons with highly accurate, 3D anatomical images that are useful in both pre-operative planning and in the operating room itself.

This technology is a vital component of minimally invasive surgery because it allows the physician to view critical areas of the patient’s anatomy while minimizing the damage to healthy tissue that can occur in open surgery. The Institute employs several advanced systems, including:

• Stealth stereotactic navigation
• Indocyanine Green Angiography (ICGA)
• Iso-C based navigation
• BrainLAB
