TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY CHRISTINE COURCOL — Medical staff members control information on their computers as a patient goes under a Gamma Knife surgery on May 2, 2011 at the Pitie-Salpetriere hospital in Paris. The Gamma Knife sugery is a minimally invasive treatment that can destroy deep-seated blood vessel malformations in the head and brain tumors once considered inoperable. It can also eliminate pain conditions and certain movement disorders, as well as silence malfunctioning areas of the brain, reduce Parkison’s diseases effects, epilepsy including certain eye conditions such as ocular melanoma (Uveal melanomas).
