Specialty Spotlight | Neurosurgery
Jeffrey Cattorini , M . D . Neurosurgeon Forest Park Medical Center Frisco
As the Chairman of the Board of Managers and Chairman of the Governing Board , and as a Neurosurgeon , I am thrilled that neurosurgery is an integral part of Forest Park Frisco . There are a dozen busy neurosurgeons on staff at the medical facility . With state of the art technology for brain and spine care in the Operating Room , the neurosurgical staff is able to provide patients with the most up -to-date care . Forest Park Frisco has Brain Lab for Brain care and the O-Arm for Spine care .
Brain Lab , with the latest software updates for Vector Vision , is used as a GPS guidance for the brain . Vector vision is invaluable where tumors can be localized precisely and the direct path for resection planned . This allows for more complete tumor resection , sparing normal brain structures , with shorter hospital stays and smaller hospital costs .
For Spine Care , there is the O-Arm , a state of the art 3D imaging for the cervical , thoracic and lumbar spine . The technology allows a 3 dimensional reconstruction of the spine based on an intra operative x-ray scans . Using this technique , neurosurgeons are able to place spinal instrumentation with greater accuracy . This technology allows the neurosurgeon to avoid critical neural structures with reduced radiation exposure , allowing smaller incisions , thereby reducing operative complications resulting in shorter hospital stays .
This cutting edge technology is what makes Forest Park Frisco a place for exceptional care for Neurosurgery .
