title: A new instrument for improved accuracy of stereotactic depth electrode placement. Technical note.
abstract: A disadvantage of stereotactic placement of flexible depth electrodes is the risk of inaccurate positioning as a result of electrode movement when the introducer is withdrawn. A simple device that virtually eliminates this error is described.
