The tremendous progress evolving in medical technologies in recent years increasingly influences our daily neurological practice. Ethical aspects in the application of technologies from differing viewpoints are discussed in detail. Additionally, typical examples for the application of medical technologies in the operating room include image processing, robotic devices, and intraoperative imaging are clearly presented.
"This supplement of Acta Neurochirurgica is the fourth in the series of proceedings covering the official biennial conferences of the Neurorehabilitation Committee of the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) in connection with the 1st congress of the International Society of Reconstructive Surgery (ISRN) which was held in Seoul in September 1-3, 2005"--Pref.
