Join us as we continue our Pathway of Progress series, leading up to #AANS2025! This month, we spotlight a critical advancement in Radiosurgery—Lars Leksell’s perfection of the stereotactic frame in 1949, which paved the way for the first Gamma Knife procedure in 1967. Without the pioneering work of Antonio Egas Moniz and his visualization of cerebral arteries, this groundbreaking innovation would not have been possible. Witness how each discovery creates ripples of progress, shaping the future of #neurosurgery. https://ow.ly/MXYW50TC6nz #AANS #AANSRippleEffect Jacques Morcos
