It has precise indications and many advantages, and it has innovated the therapy of several focal diseases of the brain (that is, when the disease is being caused by a pathological alteration that can be located in a particular and restricted area of ​​the brain), such as brain tumors, congenital vascular disorders, Parkinson's disease, epileptic outbreaks, etc.
