Innovation has always been front-and-center during the 124-year history of University Medical Center at Brackenridge. Nowhere is the spirit of innovation more evident than at the celebrated Brain & Spine Center.
The Brain & Spine Center combines leap-ahead technology with a nationally-renowned staff to treat a wide array of spinal cord injuries, strokes, and other injuries and diseases. One of the cutting-edge treatments doesn’t involve cutting at all. It’s the incredible CyberKnife, which can treat previously inoperable tumors by bombarding them with precise beams of radiation.
The Brain & Spine Recovery Center is a fully-loaded rehabilitative gymnasium with the latest equipment and techniques for getting victims of spinal cord injuries back on their feet and back to their lives.
