Introducing Turville Bay’s
computer guided radiosurgery system. It directs highly
focused beams of radiation into tumors and other abnormalities
of the head and neck. SRS is a non-surgical method
and utilizes a LINAC Scalpel, or Stereotactic linear
accelerator. It delivers high doses of radiation to
a specific area within the head and brain. Unlike Stereotactic
Radiotherapy, all the radiation in the Radiosurgery
treatment is delivered in fewer fractions directly
to the area of the tumor or abnormality. Very little
radiation reaches normal brain structures or tissue,
and there is virtually no recovery time. Radiosurgery
is ideal for treating arteriovenous malformations,
acoustic neuromas, and tumors located deep within the
brain.
