Title: A good article on Gamma Knife for AN treatment
Post by: HeadCase2 on August 24, 2006, 12:46:36 pm

All,
  Here's a link to a good article, "Gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery for unilateral acoustic neuromas"  , that can be found at http://jnnp.bmjjournals.com/cgi/content/full/74/11/1536
  Note that it has complication rates for some of the Gamma Knife treatment centers around the world (check the tables).  At the bottom in the References section you'll find "click throughs" for articles by some of the players in the Gamma Knife world, such as Noren (Boston), Steiner (Charlottesville), and Lundsford (Pittsburgh).
Regards,
 Rob

Hi Rob...

Many thanks for identifying this link which was of paramount interest to me personally as, coincidentally, I have only recently had an initial consultation with the co-author of the article Mr Rowe at Sheffield.

Having digested the article it has certainly increased my confidence to proceed with my eventual and intended treatment plan for GK at Sheffield.

Best Regards

Derek
