Our motto is “Do the best for today’s patients and never neglect research for tomorrow’s patients”. In clinical research, we are
searching for safe and accurate surgical methods. In addition, we have introduced the latest treatment methods such as endovascular
surgery, brain tumor surgery, navigation systems, neuroendoscopy, and stereotactic radiotherapy in close collaboration with affiliated
hospitals, so that we can select the best treatment method for each patient’s case. In particular, we treat many cases of glioma, cerebrovascular disorders, and pituitary tumors. In the field of basic research, we are conducting research in three groups: brain
tumors, cerebrovascular disorders, and functional neurosurgery.
