What does Dr. Gary Steinberg use to practice a patient's brain surgery before actually performing it?

Prior to conducting surgeries he usually make use of a software, developed by Colorado Start-up medical centre, to give a real time 3-Dimensional image of the brain. This advanced technology combined images produced by the Magnetic Resonance Image , Computer tomography scans and angiogram(X-ray photography of the blood); to give a real time image of the of brain and affected parts..

In order to present a virtual reality form of view ;this soft ware was synchronized with an headset; interoperate with virtual reality system (VR). Thus a life feed of 3-D image of the brain is available to both the patients and the surgical team.

This practise empowered the patients; It allowed them to participate in their own treatments, it educates them about their medical conditions, and gives them confidence and reassurance of their health and safety.

◼For the Surgical team; it enabled them to have enough time for pre–surgical preparation and procedures before real surgery is conducted ; which ensured good surgery outcomes

◼It guides them in the course of surgery, in real 3-D environments, for smooth manipulation of brain parts essential for smooth outcomes.

◼ It facilitates illustrative mode of teaching by instructors because of clear real-time images of different components of the brain are available,

This practise has many advantages over the traditional physical model which can not be manipulated, or synchronized for life surgery, and with least assurance to the patients about their health and safety during surgery.
