Leksell Gamma® KnifeIcon™is a high-end medical device that uses gamma rays to precisely treat deep intracranial lesions.
Nearly 200 beams of gamma rays are focused on the target point with sub-millimeter precision.
Deep intracranial lesions are irradiated from multiple angles with a high dose, achieving an irreversible biological effect that destroys the lesion.
Each beam has a low energy level, which does not harm the healthy tissue along its path.
The irradiated area is sharply delineated from the surrounding normal tissue, with an edge precision akin to a surgical cut.
Functional Disorders: Trigeminal neuralgia, essential tremor, etc.
Brain Tumors: Meningiomas, pituitary adenomas, acoustic neuromas, gliomas, brain metastases, etc.
Cerebrovascular Malformations: Arteriovenous malformations (AVM), dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVF), cavernous angiomas, etc.
· Patients with Tumors: Including benign brain tumors (such as acoustic neuroma, pituitary adenoma, meningioma) and malignant tumors (such as craniopharyngioma, chordoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma)
· Patients with Vascular Diseases: The most common types are brain arteriovenous malformations and cavernous angiomas
