Neurosurgery

Problems commonly treated by neurosurgeons involve the brain and spinal cord.  Procedures may include the repair of ruptured discs in the spinal column, bleeding problems within the brain tissue or the surrounding membranes, tumor excision, or pituitary gland surgery. The work of the neurosurgeon often requires a considerable array of high-tech equipment.
