Is Radiosurgery Right for You?
Only your physicians
can help you with the decision to have Stereotactic
Radiosurgery. You’ll begin
with an evaluation by a Neurosurgeon or Radiation Oncologist
which is scheduled after a referral from your regular
physician. Your physician may be asked to send pertinent
CT and MRI films, as well as hospital and office records.
Once your Neurosurgeon or Radiation Oncologist decides
that Radiosurgery is an appropriate option for you,
an appointment will be scheduled at Turville Bay MRI & Radiation
Oncology Center.
Generally, Radiosurgery is the preferred choice when
lesions or tumors
are surgically inoperable, when they have recurred
or remained after surgery, and when patients are either
too weak for surgery or choose not to have a major
procedure under general anesthesia.
