ONKI3 | Medical Subject Headings

The ONKI is provided as a part of the ONKI Living Lab - an open lab for testing the latest semantic web technologies in practice, with real users like you. Currently, over 10 000 people are using ONKI each month.

We hope you like the ONKI service and enjoy using it for your purposes!

If you encounter any problems or have improvement ideas, please contact the ONKI team. We are also very much interested in your success stories in using ONKI - please share your experiences!

Annotation:	a specific type of surgery; do not confuse with COMBINED MODALITY THERAPY (see note there) using surgery + radiotherapy; coordinate IM with dis /surg (IM), not /radiother; gamma knife & linear accelerator: index under RADIOSURGERY /instrum & do not coordinate with GAMMA RAYS or PARTICLE ACCELERATORS unless particularly discussed X
History note:	Stereotaxic Techniques (1971-1991)X
historyNote*:	92 X
publicMeSHNote*:	92 X
Scope note:	A radiological stereotactic technique developed for cutting or destroying tissue by high doses of radiation in place of surgical incisions. It was originally developed for neurosurgery on structures in the brain and its use gradually spread to radiation surgery on extracranial structures as well. The usual rigid needles or probes of stereotactic surgery are replaced with beams of ionizing radiation directed toward a target so as to achieve local tissue destruction. X
