- Orthopaedic & Neurosurgery Specialists PC (ONS)

The ONS neurosurgical team provides comprehensive surgical management of patients with a variety of brain, spine, and peripheral nerve tumors using the latest in intra-operative neuro-navigation.  In the operating room, high resolution MRI images are used to create a 3-D visual reconstruction of the patient’s brain, which is then used as a map of the brain. This system acts like GPS for the brain and helps guide the surgeon to safely and completely remove the tumor. When necessary, intra-operative brain mapping of functional cortex may also be done.  

Adjuvant therapies such as chemotherapy, radiosurgery and whole brain radiation may also be indicated. Radiosurgery is delivered through the Cyberknife System, one of the most advanced radiosurgical systems available.  A team of top medical specialists meets regularly to develop an individual treatment plan for each patient. This team of experts is composed of neurosurgeons, neurologists, neuro-oncologists, radiation oncologists, pathologists, medical oncologists and neuroradiologists.
