The research of today lays the foundation for the medicine of tomorrow. Every breakthrough brings us one step closer to safer surgeries and new, improved treatment approaches for previously incurable diseases. That is why research is so essential to our work.

Would you like to be part of this important mission and support us with your donation? Your contribution to neurosurgical research helps us advance our projects and give patients new hope. Together, we can shape the future of medicine and improve the chances of healing.

Our research areas

Neurosurgical research – Brain tumor

A key focus of our neurosurgical research is brain tumor research. It enhances safety and precision in procedures on the brain and spinal cord. With state-of-the-art technologies, we can visualize vital brain structures, making even the most complex procedures safer.

HORAO brain tumor project

Neurosurgeons perform brain tumor surgery using the prototype of the new state-of-the-art microscope. Multiple screens display detailed scans of the brain, while innovative technology supports the precision of the procedure.

Support our major research project HORAO. We are working intensively on the development of a new surgical microscope that will enable more precise and at the same time gentler removal of brain tumors. The first prototypes are currently being tested in the OR.

IONM research

A surgical team monitors important brain functions during brain surgery.

Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is used to monitor brain functions during surgical procedures. The goal is to prevent neurological damage, especially during operations near delicate brain structures, thereby maximizing patient safety.
