Introducing Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS)

Introducing Turville Bay’s computer guided radiosurgery system. It directs highly focused beams of radiation into tumors and other abnormalities of the head and neck. SRS is a non-surgical method and utilizes a LINAC Scalpel, or Stereotactic linear accelerator. It delivers high doses of radiation to a specific area within the head and brain. Unlike Stereotactic Radiotherapy, all the radiation in the Radiosurgery treatment is delivered in fewer fractions directly to the area of the tumor or abnormality. Very little radiation reaches normal brain structures or tissue, and there is virtually no recovery time. Radiosurgery is ideal for treating arteriovenous malformations, acoustic neuromas, and tumors located deep within the brain.
