We are leaders in basic science and clinical research, with hundreds of publications in the medical literature in the leading journals in our specialty.
Mayo Clinic specialists pioneered many surgical techniques for vestibular schwannoma. We offer highly specialized care and access to the latest technology.
Mayo Clinic neuroradiologists devote their careers to evaluating nervous system conditions with MRIs and other advanced imaging studies. This deep experience provides you with more accurate imaging and interpretation.
Our doctors use the latest tools and techniques to treat vestibular schwannoma, including stereotactic radiosurgery and other innovative technologies.
Mayo Clinic neurosurgeons are among the first using an advanced form of brain tumor imaging called magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) – which was invented at Mayo Clinic – with related slip interface imaging. This combination gives a clearer picture of how firm and attached a brain tumor is, allowing for more precise surgical planning. Mayo Clinic is also one of the first centers to implement the clinical use of the 7-Tesla MRI. The 7-Tesla MRI uses a stronger magnetic field to produce more detailed images. With more detailed images, we can better diagnose and treat patients with conditions like vestibular schwannoma. An accurate diagnosis is essential to developing and guiding a personalized treatment plan.
In our state-of-the-art research and laboratory facilities, we are constantly seeking new medical knowledge through clinical trials to innovate care for people with vestibular schwannomas.
