The new age of stereotaxis: toward the 21st century.
The remarkable recent progress in stereotactic surgery, functional as well as nonfunctional, is briefly reviewed, with emphasis on our own experiences. Owing to the day-by-day progress of computer-assisted neuroimaging and basic research in neuroscience, stereotactic surgery has greatly benefitted. In this sense, the future of stereotactic surgery could be 'en rose' and quite promising toward the 21st century.
