What is Neuro-endoscopy: Neuro-endoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that uses a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope to diagnose and treat conditions of the brain, spine, and peripheral nervous system. By inserting the endoscope through small incisions or natural openings, surgeons can access hard-to-reach areas with a camera and specialized instruments, allowing for precise procedures like tumor removal, tissue sampling, and relieving pressure from conditions like hydrocephalus. This technique offers benefits such as shorter recovery times and less trauma compared to traditional open surgery.   Links: Here is a link to Dr. Totimeh's music on iTunes.  https://music.apple.com/us/artist/teddy-totimeh/1605609021 To contact Dr. Totimeh, please see his email and LinkedIn below: teddytotimeh@gmail.com linkedin.com/in/teddy-totimeh-61133514 If you would like to contact me with any comments or questions, please email me directly at:   drtedthachenkary@gmail.com Support the show
