Have you met our Neurosurgical Nurse Practitioner? Want to learn more about a rare type of brain tumour? Or maybe you're keen to add some more Super Spine Stuff to your trivia bank! Read about all of this in our latest newsletter! brizbrainandspine.createsend.com/campaigns/repo…
Super Spine Stuff - Your lumbar spine (lower back) is the powerhouse of your spine! 5 strong vertebrae (L1–L5) carry your upper body & let you bend, lift & twist. But all that work makes it the #1 source of back pain. So thank your lumbar spine next time you carry the groceries!
The clinic will be closed for the EKKA public holiday on Wednesday, 13 August. Phones will still be answered between 8:30am - 4:30pm should you have any queries or wish to make an appointment. Alternatively, please visit our website at brizbrain.com.au.
August is #NeurosurgeryAwarenessMonth - a time to honour every patient, every role, one purpose. Help us raise awareness for brain & spine health and stand with those on the path to recovery.
Super Spine Stuff - the cervical spine (the neck) is the most mobile part of your spine! Its 7 vertebrae support your 5kg head while letting you nod, tilt & twist. Nearly 50% of head rotation comes from just C1 & C2. Flexible but fragile - your neck does more more than you think!
Dr Terry Coyne & Prof Peter Silburn have completed their 1,350th DBS procedure - this time implanting the world’s smallest rechargeable & remotely programmable device in a Brisbane patient. An Asia-Pacific first with life-changing results via WiFi & app. standrewshospital.com.au/about-us/news/…
Neurological disorders are a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. This #WorldBrainDay, help raise awareness for #BrainHealthForAllAges. Register for tonight’s free webinar to learn more: zoom.us/webinar/regist…
New research from @QIMRB_Institute & @TheCrick shows brain stem cells use ancient survival tactics - entering a “sleep mode” called quiescence. This could help us wake up cancer cells for treatment or keep them asleep to prevent brain tumour regrowth. scimex.org/newsfeed/scien…
Super Spine Stuff - the thoracic spine sits between your neck and ribs and is made up of 12 vertebrae (T1 - T12). It protects the spinal cord and nerves, supports ribs, shields vital organs, and helps you move. It’s the spine’s largest section - and it’s got your back, literally!
Have you ever wondered about how spine surgery developed? Perhaps you want to know more about ependymomas. Or maybe you’re curious about the future of medical robots… Read all about this and more in our latest newsletter! brizbrainandspine.createsend.com/campaigns/repo…
Super Spine Stuff – the Snipe Eel has 750+ vertebrae, the most of any animal! Most snakes have 200 - 400, pangolins 46 - 47, & humans 33. At the tiny end? The Paedophryne amanuensis frog has just 7. Spines are truly amazing! Frog photo credit: DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0029797
Your intervertebral discs aren’t just squishy spacers—they’re biomechanical powerhouses! From the neck to the tailbone, they cushion the load, enable movement & even make you taller in the morning. Shout out to the unsung heroes of the spine!
Despite the rain, nearly 100 GPs joined us for our annual GP Education Conference at the end of May. A day of expert insights on brain & spine care - highlighted by the inspiring story of Matthew Ames, a quadruple amputee & true testament to resilience. Thank you for joining us!
Today is World Brain Tumour Day. About 1,900 Aussies are diagnosed with brain cancer every year. It's 5-year survival rate is just 23%. It's the deadliest cancer for kids & young adults. Research, early detection & new treatments are vital. Let's work together to cure it!
Attention GPs! Our annual GP Education Conference is nearly here. Join us on 31 May at The Emporium for “Spinal & Neurosurgical Essentials – Treatment Algorithms”. Get the latest updates + network with specialists. Register now! brizbrain.com.au/for-doctors/gp…
Super Spine Stuff – Babies are born with 33 vertebrae, but most adults have just 26. At around age 20, the lower vertebrae begin to fuse — a process that takes years. By middle age, you’ve got a sacrum and coccyx instead of 9 separate bones. It seems time shapes your spine!
