Frequently Asked Questions
DBS is a neurosurgical procedure that involves implanting a medical device called a 'brain pacemaker'. It sends electrical impulses to specific targets in the brain to treat movement disorders like Parkinson’s Disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. It can dramatically improve symptoms like tremors, stiffness, and slow movement.
Dr. Banerjee is a leading DBS expert due to his prestigious fellowship from the Cleveland Clinic, USA (a world leader in DBS), his extensive experience of over 200 DBS surgeries, and his pioneering role in establishing DBS programmes in India and abroad.
Functional neurosurgery is a highly specialised branch of neurosurgery that aims to treat disorders of the nervous system by modulating or restoring function, rather than just removing a lesion. It includes procedures like DBS, SCS, and surgeries for epilepsy and psychiatric conditions.
Yes, for severe, treatment-resistant cases of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), functional neurosurgical procedures, including DBS, can be an effective treatment option to help modulate the brain circuits involved in the disorder.
Skull-base surgery is a subspecialty focused on treating tumours and other abnormalities located on the underside of the brain or the base of the skull, which are among the most difficult areas to reach. It requires highly specialised training and skill, which Dr. Banerjee possesses from his US fellowships..
You can schedule a virtual consultation for a second opinion by contacting the Cancer Rounds. The team will assist you in sharing your medical records and scans and will arrange a video call with Dr. Banerjee.
