ATLANTA and PHILADELPHIA, April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- At the 2010 American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) Annual Meeting, May 1-5 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center, Elekta will host a series of presentations highlighting Elekta Neuromag®, a tool that measures and records brain activity using magnetoencephalography (MEG) technology. Led by Froedert & Medical College of Wisconsin neurosurgeon, Brian Kopell, M.D., the sessions will take place at Elekta booth 1325 during exhibition hours:

  • Utility of MEG in Pre-surgical Mapping: Monday, May 3 at 9:30 a.m.
