Provider Bio
Dr. Nelson is board certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery
(ABNS) and has been a part of Boulder Neurosurgical & Spine Associates
(BNA) since 2004. Dr. Nelson’s areas of clinical interest include
neurosurgical oncology and complex spinal surgery with an emphasis on
minimally invasive techniques. He was instrumental in bringing ultramodern
intraoperative imaging systems to Colorado, including the O-ARM and the
PoleStar N-20 Intraoperative MRI. As a result, BNA was the first in Colorado
to use such technologies and the second surgical group in the United States
to introduce them to the operating room. Dr. Nelson also serves as a consultant
for a neuromodulation company and believes this technology can be an important
part of providing comprehensive care to patients with problems of the spine.
