Frameless Stereotactic Radiosurgery vs Traditional Techniques: What’s the Difference?
The stereotactic radiosurgery procedure has long been a trusted technique for treating brain and spinal lesions without the need for open surgery. Traditionally, this procedure involved the use of a rigid frame fixed to the patient’s skull to ensure pinpoint accuracy during high-dose radiation delivery. However, with rapid advances in imaging and motion-tracking technologies, frameless stereotactic radiosurgery has emerged as a more patient-friendly and equally precise alternative.
