gordy:
just wondering if people that have had gamma knife surgery if a neurosurgeon was used in the process. thanks.

macintosh:
I had LINAC radiosurgery, supervised by a neurosurgeon.

linnilue:
This is protocol.  Neourosurgeons map the tumor for the radiooncologist. 

gordy:
thanks for the feed back. now on this site i read, after i asked the question that in radiation therapy a nerotoligist is used with the radiation oncologist. is a neurologist the same as a doctor who is a otology and a neuro-otologic skull base surgeon? thanks for any fed back.

Mark:
The other members of the radiosurgery team are the physcists who actually do the software programming after the guidance from the neurosurgeon and radiation oncologist. It takes a village  ;D
