This may sound paradoxical. But I can’t help saying this. Isn’t radiosurgery the elusive magic bullet we are seeking for? Painless, swift, targeted. Almost magic…
Yes. But surgery is irreplaceable and no radiosurgery can ever completely replace it.
But as surgeons, isn’t it one’s duty to find evermore less invasive ways to treat and if possible eliminate the need for surgery altogether.
Call it endovascular surgery, radiosurgery or nanosurgery – but it all points to the need for incision less, painless procedures to effect treatment on structural lesions. And hopefully surgeons remain in the forefront to create advances in those fields.
