We officially opened our new biplane angio suite at @EndeavorHlth.
This Philips Azurion biplane R3 is 1 of only 5 across the country, & the 1st of its kind in Illinois.
Grateful to be part of a hospital continuing to invest in tech that improves precision, safety, & outcomes.

Proud to share that @OSFHealthCare department of neurosurgery introduced the new Laser Interstitial Thermal Therapy (LITT) last week. Precision, minimally invasive care for patients with brain tumors and epilepsy, and a great training opportunity for our residents!

“I love the MicroVention portfolio, in general,” says @KenJohnsonMD, Assistant Professor of Tulane University School of Medicine. “Specifically, the WEB device for aneurysms because it's such a simple and safe device. I was able to learn from one of the innovators of the WEB device.”
We also asked Dr. Johnson what inspires him as a neurosurgeon. “I’ve had family members who’ve experienced a stroke, and the risk factors for stroke feature prominently in my family. That gives me my drive and passion for taking care of folks in their most vulnerable situations.”
Thank you to the physicians who’ve visited our booth at #SNIS2024 to share their stories and take on the latest innovations in neurointervention.

🧵for the new residents and students on the meaning of 'French' and 'Gauge'.
We've covered this on here in the past, but a lot of new people are starting on surgical rotations, so let's look at them again.
As usual, we'll cover their history and what they mean.

Excited to share the first intrasaccular aneurysm embolization in the US with #Midway43 intermediate catheter @TulaneNeuro! Excellent access and stability provided with this device. Thanks to @PenNeuro for bringing our patients this exciting technology.

While @taylorswift13 may sing about broken hearts, no one knows more about that than Ashley Pisano. The "Swiftie" survived a brain aneurysm and Broken Heart Syndrome (stress cardiomyopathy) on the same day thanks to the quick efforts of @TulaneDoctors. ow.ly/3tfs50QOUAe
