This book examines the critical role of Health Technology Assessment (HTA) in neurosurgery at a time of rapid technological expansion and escalating healthcare costs. It provides a structured, evidence-based framework to evaluate emerging and established neurosurgical technologies including advanced imaging, neuro-navigation, robotics, artificial intelligence, implants, and minimally invasive interventions through clinical effectiveness, safety, cost-effectiveness, ethical, organizational, and equity lenses. The book bridges the gap between innovation and implementation by translating HTA principles into practical guidance for neurosurgeons, researchers, hospital administrators, and policymakers. It highlights how rigorous assessment can optimize patient outcomes, reduce unwarranted variation in care, and support value-based decision-making in high-risk, high-cost neurosurgical practice. With perspectives relevant to both high-income and resource-limited settings, the book emphasizes sustainable neurocare, responsible adoption of innovation, and alignment with global HTA frameworks.
