Neurosurgeon & Brain Tumor Specialist located in South Miami, FL & Hialeah, FL, & Weston, FL

Laser Treatment for Brain tumors is a minimally invasive procedure that uses laser energy to destroy tumor cells. During the procedure, a thin laser probe is inserted into the brain tumor through a small hole in the skull. The laser emits high-intensity light energy, which heats and destroys the tumor cells, while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This technique can be used as a standalone treatment or in combination with other treatments such as surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy, depending on the type and location of the tumor. It's often used for tumors that are difficult to access or remove through traditional surgery, or for patients who may not tolerate more invasive procedures well.
