Brain Surgery (LEICA Microscope System)

Brain Surgery with the LEICA Microscope System leverages the power of high-resolution optics and fluorescence imaging to improve the visualization of brain structures during surgery. Dr. Mukherjee utilizes this technology to meticulously operate on brain tumors, including gliomas, meningiomas, and metastatic tumors. The enhanced clarity provided by the LEICA Microscope System allows for more precise tumor removal while preserving healthy brain tissue. This approach not only increases the safety and efficacy of the surgery but also contributes to better postoperative recovery.
