title: Application of CT-directed stereotaxy in the determination of functional neurosurgical targets in the diencephalon and cerebral hemisphere.
abstract: The descriptions of two techniques allowing for CT target determination in functional neurosurgery are presented, the first for thalamic and peri-thalamic explorations in the treatment of dyskinesiae and chronic pain, the second for the implantation of multiple hemispheric depth electrodes in the assessment of chronic drug-resistant epilepsy.
