Neurology
Learn about Neurology Robotic-Assisted Surgery, where robotic technology is changing how neurological disorders are treated.
It is part of ongoing efforts to explore new approaches to neurology care and neurological disorder treatment.
What Is Neurology Robotic Surgery?
Neurology surgeons use robotic-assistance to gain precise control and address complex brain and spine conditions with less invasiveness, potentially leading to improved patient recovery. Surgeons use a robotic system, 3-D imaging and other advanced tools that allow for smaller incisions, less muscle damage, and may lead to shorter recovery times.
What Is Neurology Robotic Surgery Used For?
Robotic-assisted surgery may be used for several different conditions.
These conditions include:
- Spinal fusion
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spinal instability
Not everyone is a candidate for robotic-assisted surgery. To learn more, please speak with your Baptist Health neurologist.
