Treating Nerve Tumors
Image Based Surgery Center is a leader in the diagnosis and treatment of nerve tumors.
Nerve tumors affecting the nerves are rare. Moreover, they are often benign and curable.
The main challenge with successfully treating nerve tumors is pinpointing their location. The pain and numbness caused by a nerve tumor may mimic a far more common type of nerve pinch or syndrome. It is not uncommon for nerve tumors to be misdiagnosed as other disorders, and for surgeries to be performed for the wrong affliction.
Image Based Surgery Center partners with The Neurography Institute to provide accurate imaging of nerve tumors. MR neurography is highly effective for identifying normally-invisible nerve tumors. In fact, MR neurography is so accurate, it can image tumors as small as one or two millimeters.
It is not uncommon for nerve tumors of all sizes to be discovered during MR neurography studies ordered by doctors looking for a nerve entrapment.
Once identified, surgeons at Image Based Surgery Center can custom-tailor a surgical resolution for the tumor that is minimally invasive and creates a very short recovery window.
Your safety is our primary concern at Image Based Surgery Center. That's why we only use MRI imaging for your procedures. No dangerous radiation from repeated CT scans or x-rays - only the 100% safe, completely comfortable Philips Panorama MRI for all your imaging requirements.
