Kristin Daniell Isham
Kristin Daniell Isham began to suffer from migraine headaches that became progressively worse. When Kristin experienced paralysis on her right side, a series of tests revealed a tumor on the top, left side of her brain. Removal of Kristin’s brain tumor required extreme caution because it was large and prone to bleeding. Under the care of Dr. David Baskin and his team of highly skilled neurosurgeons at the Kenneth R. Peak Center for Brain and Pituitary Tumor Treatment and Research, the latest virtual-reality system provided safe guidance through Kristin’s brain. Successful removal of the tumor was achieved through the use of precision micro-tools and the application of ultrasonography.
