Brain surgery has come a long way in recent years, thanks to the integration of modern technologies and machines. Dr. Chu Tan Si, head of neurosurgery at Tam Anh General Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, discussed the importance of these advancements in treating various neurological conditions.
While traditional surgical techniques can be effective in removing tumors or hematomas, they have limitations that increase the risk of neurological complications. The lack of clear visualization of structures such as tumors, blood vessels, and nerves can result in unintended damage to healthy tissue during surgery. This can lead to a range of issues, from weakness to vision disorders, and even death.
However, with new technologies like Neuro-Navigation Curve and AI-powered microsurgical microscope systems, brain surgeries are now more precise and safe than ever before. These systems provide detailed imaging that guides doctors to accurately locate and remove lesions while minimizing damage to surrounding structures. Additionally, tools like ultrasonic suction cutters help break down tumors without causing unnecessary harm to healthy tissue.
Emergency procedures like ENRICH technique for hemorrhagic stroke offer quick and precise solutions to life-threatening conditions by removing hematomas and stopping bleeding rapidly. These procedures can prevent long-term neurological damage and improve overall outcomes for patients. The availability of out-of-hospital emergency care ensures that patients receive timely treatment to minimize the impact of these conditions.
At Tam Anh General Hospital, cutting-edge machines like Revolution Apex Elite CT scanner are being used to quickly diagnose and treat strokes, tumors, and other neurological conditions with unprecedented speed and accuracy.
Despite these advancements, brain cancer remains prevalent in Vietnam highlighting the ongoing need for improved treatments and preventative measures. Hospitals like Tam Anh General Hospital are at the forefront of providing life-saving care for patients with neurological conditions by leveraging the latest technologies and techniques.
Overall, modern technology has revolutionized traditional brain surgery techniques by making them more efficient and effective while minimizing risks associated with traditional methods. With continued innovation in neurosurgical technologies, hospitals will be able to provide even better care for patients with neurological conditions.
