Biopsy (diagnosis) of intracerebral tumors in Ternopil
Intracerebral tumor biopsy is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure performed to determine the type of tumor in brain tissue when open surgery is too risky. Using neuronavigation systems , the doctor takes a tissue sample with millimeter precision, which allows for an accurate diagnosis and the appointment of personalized therapy ( chemo- or radiation).
Sometimes, for tumors that are clearly impossible to remove or when there is doubt about the nature of the intracerebral tumor , a diagnostic operation is performed – a brain tumor biopsy. This intervention consists in the fact that through a small milling hole in the bones of the skull, special instruments are brought to the tumor node and a sample of tumor tissue is taken for histological and, or, histochemical examination.
