He serves as Director of the Spine Research Laboratory and Associate Chief of the Spine Section at Barrow Neurological Institute.[2] Career After graduating from Medical school at the University of Arizona, Dr. Dickman began his neurosurgical training at Barrow Neurological Institute, and was one of the first group of residents to train under Drs. Robert Spetzler and Volker Sonntag. He completed a fellowship in spine at the University of Florida, and soon thereafter was added to the faculty of the Department of Neurosurgery at Barrow Neurological Institute. Thoracoscopic Spine Surgery In the early 1990s, Dr. Dickman became heavily involved in both the development and popularization of endoscopic assisted spine procedures within neurosurgery. He pioneered the field of thoracoscopic neurosurgery, becoming one of the first neurosurgeons to use endoscopes to treat diseases of the thoracic spine via a minimally invasive method. He translated a relatively new technology utilized in the cardiothoracic surgical sub-specialty for neurosurgical purposes, and developed some of the basic instruments commonly used today by neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons alike for minimally invasive thoracic spinal procedures. Thoracoscopic spine surgery has since become a common treatment modality for a multitude of neurosurgical pathologies, including Herniated Thoracic Discs and Hyperhidrosis. Dr. Dickman currently remains one of the most prolific thoracoscopic spine surgeons in the world, and has written the only textbook on the subject. His recently published series on the subject has become a standard by which other neurosurgeons are measured against. In addition to his work on Thoracoscopic procedures, Dr. Dickman has published numerous textbooks and papers on the craniocervical junction. He is well known for the "Sonntag-Dickman Fusion," a special method of fusing the upper cervical spine.
