[MRI, geometric distortion of the image and stereotaxy].
The MRI technology may be the starting-point of geometric distorsion. The mathematical preciseness of a spatial location may be disturbed and alter the guidance of an MRI interventionnal act, especially in stereotactic brain biopsy. A review of the literature shows errors of 1 to 1.5 mm. Our results show an error of 0.16 +/- 0.66 mm. The control of quality: homogeneity and calibration of magnetic-field gradients, permit an improve of the balistic preciseness and give permission to realize the guidance of a stereotactic brain biopsy with the alone MRI.
