The types of neurosurgery include endovascular neurosurgery,oncological neurosurgery,
stereotactic neurosurgery, craniotomy, and neuro-endoscopy.
He spent time with Ron Tasker, doyen of
stereotactic neurosurgery, and later with Paul Yakovlev at Harvard.
The company has developed the Gamma Knife, a non-invasive surgical tool for the management of small and hard to locate intracranial lesions, as well as a complete system for
stereotactic neurosurgery.
Stereotactic neurosurgery is a minimally-invasive approach to precisely localize and treat specific regions in the brain while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.

Stereotactic neurosurgery is a minimally invasive surgery which helps to remove brain tumors by using image guidance.
The research led by Andrea Malizia and Nikunj Patel are pioneering a number of treatments including experimental antidepressants, deep brain stimulation (DBS) and
stereotactic neurosurgery.
Possible treatment options are drug-based,
stereotactic neurosurgery and physical therapy.
GNP's Dr Arne Brosig added: "I believe this clinical research co-operation between GNP and the team of DBS specialists, which has operated on thousands of patients and is led by a pioneer of
stereotactic neurosurgery, is a major coup for the UAE and Middle East."This is very much a last resort technique, as it is a very complex neurosurgery, but it can be incredibly effective and, with the new and improved techniques, results have been even more successful.
