A new stereotactic instrument for use with computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
The new stereotactic instrument has the advantages of use with computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) without special adaptations of instruments, brain targets transferred directly from CT or MRI to apparatus, and use with conventional stereotactic techniques. The apparatus is designed to meet present demands of neurosurgical facilities of good standards and capabilities, encompassing present and future developments towards more efficient and less invasive brain operations.
