Innovative laser technologies in brain umors surgery

Keywords: brain tumors, laser technologies, neuronavigation

Abstract

The article presents the results of application of innovative laser technologies in the surgical treatment of brain tumors. The article reviews the problems of a differentiated approach to the choice of the laser source as well as optimization of intraoperative application of laser dissection effects, vaporization, coagulation and thermal destruction of tumor tissue, providing increase of surgery efficiency degree and patients’ quality of life. The results of studies on the development of laser surgery planning method and intraoperative navigation maintenance for brain tumors laser surgery method are presented.
