About
Benjamin Zussman is a leading figure in the field of neurosurgical oncology, with a particular focus on the application of advanced image-guided technologies for the treatment of complex spinal pathologies. His key research areas encompass stereotactic radiosurgery, intraoperative imaging, and the optimization of radiation delivery for both intradural and extradural spine tumors. Dr. Zussman’s major contributions include pioneering the use of cone-beam CT (CBCT) image guidance for the precise radiosurgical treatment of intradural spine tumors, a technically challenging area where traditional approaches carry significant risks. His seminal 2017 work on this topic, which has garnered 19 citations, prospectively demonstrated the safety and efficacy of this technique, establishing a new standard for minimally invasive tumor management. Beyond this, his research has advanced the understanding of dose fractionation and tumor control in spinal radiosurgery, directly impacting clinical protocols. Dr. Zussman’s work is distinguished by its translational impact, bridging cutting-edge imaging physics with tangible improvements in patient outcomes and quality of life.
