It is my pleasure to invite you to this educational symposium to learn more about the expanding clinical choices now available for malignant and benign brain lesions with non-invasive treatment.

This seminar will introduce the use of fractionated treatment for large or critically located targets in the head and neck that were previously untreatable with Gamma Knife® surgery.

The seminar features speakers with experience in Gamma Knife® surgery from the UK, Italy, Sweden, France, and the US, and would be of special relevance to anyone interested in treatment for patients with cerebral metastasis.

While the seminar is free to attend, you must register by e-mailing your confirmation details to Andrew Barbosa at andrew.barbosa@htieu.com, or phoning Andrew on 01132 459 013.
I hope that you decide to attend and I am looking forward to seeing you there.

Professor Mark R Baker
