CLINICAL DISCRIMINATION & MICRONEUROSURGERY

Precision Microsurgery & Objective Radiosurgical Triaging for Cranial Tumors

Prof. Qin Zhiyong, MD, PhD, is Vice Chair of the Department of Neurosurgery at Huashan Hospital and Vice Director of the Glioma Diagnosis and Surgical Center. Mentored by Academician Zhou Liangfu, he is one of China's most trusted authorities on tailoring surgical versus non-invasive stereotactic radiosurgical pathways for complex intracranial and spinal neoplasms.

Having completed clinical fellowships at Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz in Germany and postdoctoral neurosurgical research at the University of Michigan in the United States, Prof. Qin brings deep international expertise to pituitary adenoma endoscopic resection, skull base meningiomas, acoustic neuromas, and intra-extramedullary spinal cord tumors. He serves as a core standing committee member of the CSCO Neuro-Oncology Society, actively guiding international patients through critical surgical versus radiation choices.

CORE OPERATIVE MASTERY & CLINICAL EXCELLENCE

Microsurgical Mastery & Multidisciplinary Treatment Selection

Individualized Glioma Resection

Tailored microscopic surgical trajectories designed to minimize peritumoral edema, reduce brain distortion, and protect critical white matter tracts.

Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery

High-definition 4K endoscope guidance for pituitary macroadenomas, craniopharyngiomas, and chordomas with complete optic chiasm decompression.

Surgical vs. Radiosurgery Triage

Unbiased, evidence-based triage between open microneurosurgery, Gamma Knife, and CyberKnife, ensuring patients avoid overtreatment or incomplete control.

Acoustic Neuroma & Spinal Tumors

Intricate nerve-sparing microdissection for vestibular schwannomas (preserving facial nerve integrity) and intramedullary spinal cord neoplasms.
