They already had maximum radiation, and in the absence of any effective medical treatment, surgical resection is the only treatment.1,2 Surgery on recurrent previously radiated chordomas, however, carries much higher risk and the likelihood of subtotal resection. Maximizing tumor resection allows longer tumor control.3-5 The Advanced Multimodality Image Guided Operating Suite developed at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, with the support of the National Institutes of Health, provides an optimal environment to manage these tumors. It offers the capability to obtain and integrate multiple modalities during surgery, including magne
