What
is Neurosurgery?
Neurosurgery provides diagnosis and treatment of conditions of
the nervous system that may require surgery. An important function
of
the neurosurgeon is to determine when and when not to employ surgical
intervention. Much of his expertise is directed towards this decision
making process. Many patients are treated with surgery. Management
options are discussed with patients when the consideration of
surgery
is necessary. One important goal of neurosurgery is to optimize
the potential outcome of conditions affecting the nervous system
by utilizing modern technology in the context of our understanding
the nervous system function. The demand for precision requires
application
of this technology through the expertise of skilled surgeons.
