We are the first hospital in Northern California to offer the ROSA™ robotized surgical assistant for 3-D mapping for epilepsy. ROSA’s™ computer brain guides its robotic arm to facilitate mapping, which helps determine the best trajectory to minimize damage to adjacent brain tissue. Our surgeons can also rely on the ROSA to manipulate instruments as thin as a… Continuar lendo Treatment children with Epilepsy: ROSA™ robotized surgical assistant for 3-D mapping for epilepsy.
