Image guided neurosurgery in brain and skull base

Background

Dr. Tang started at Beijing Medical University in 1992, and continued medical training and study at Capital Medical University where he obtained his MD and PhD degrees in 2005. His surgical training started in 1997 at the Neurosurgery of Beijing Tiantan Hospital which is the largest neurosurgical center in China. Since 2005, he focused on the minimal invasive surgical management of complex brain and skull base lesions, including meningiomas, schwannoma, pituitary adenoma, chordoma, cavernous malformations. Besides skillful surgical skill, advanced image guided technique has been applied in the surgery to improve the outcome. Dr. Tang did his fellowship of skull base in 2005/06 in USA.
