Targeted Destruction Of A Deep Brain Structure

Idaho rates for HCPCS 61735

Uses a head frame and image guidance to aim a probe with millimeter accuracy at a small structure deep inside the brain, then destroys a tiny volume of tissue there, working through a narrow channel from a small opening in the skull. Interrupting a faulty circuit at that precise spot can ease severe symptoms that medicines have failed to control. The target lies below the surface of the brain and away from the thalamus and the globus pallidus, which are treated as a different operation.
