Memorial Team Performs Epilepsy Surgery Using Robot Technology
|
The epilepsy team with
Memorial Neuroscience Institute, located in Hollywood, successfully completed its first use of a minimally invasive robotic device that helps pinpoint the origin of epileptic seizures on a patient. The device, now in full use at
Memorial Regional Hospital, is called a
Robotized Surgical Assistant, or ROSA. With assistance from the robot, neurosurgeons only need to make small, precise incisions in the scalp and skull to place electrodes deep in the brain and investigate where seizures are triggered, according to
Christopher DeMassi, MD, FACS, Chief of the Memorial Neuroscience Institute and Chief of Neurosurgery.
