Triathlete and marathon runner Brad credits his neurosurgeon, Eric Leuthardt, MD, with giving him the confidence he needed to make the right decisions about treatment for his grade II brain tumor. Dr. Leuthardt used intraoperative MRI (IMRI) technology to perform a craniotomy and remove 95 percent of Brad's tumor, and since surgery there is no evidence the tumor has returned.
