title: [Determination of the coordinates in the stereotactic computed tomography: simplification of the conventional method].
abstract: A simplification of the graphic and arithmetical method traditionally used for determination of the target stereotactic coordinates in the computed tomography is presented. The arithmetical calculation, besides simpler, is theoretically more accurate for using a real point of the stereotactic space. The proposed diagram (graphic method) presents the advantage of allowing the determination of the target stereotactic coordinates independently of the computed tomographic image size.
