The MRI-guided technique allows surgeons to access deeper brain regions.
Australia’s The Alfred is the first hospital in Victoria to introduce laser interstitial thermal therapy for epilepsy surgery.
The new MRI-guided technique enables surgeons to access deeper brain regions to target and destroy lesions causing epilepsy.
A laser fibre is inserted into the brain, and the patient is placed in an MRI scanner that provides real-time data on the brain and laser temperature.
