Principles of Neuronavigation
Background and Aim: Numerous efforts over the past century have been performed. Various innovation techniques are increasingly gaining attention and gradually established the foundation of recent significant developments in the world of neurosurgery, among which varied stereotactic neuro-navigation designs and other novel emerging systems are being quotidian developed. This narrative review ai...
متن کاملFunctional neuronavigation using an interventional magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) system
Introduction Biopsy and resection of brain tumors in eloquent areas remain challenging tasks because of the potential risk of postoperative neurological deficits and, consequently, a severe deterioration of life quality Biopsy and resection of brain tumors in eloquent areas remain challenging tasks because of the potential risk of postoperative neurological deficits and, consequently, a severe ...
متن کاملFrameless stereotactic cerebral biopsy: our experience in 296 cases.
AIMS To evaluate the reliability, safety and accuracy of a the frameless stereotactic system in our clinical series and the differences between head fixation by means of a standard Mayfield head holder and the pinless FESS frame, and to evaluate the usefulness of biopsy targeting on the basis of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data. METHODS The spectroscopic analysis was used to facilit...
متن کاملA Multimodal Navigation System for Interventional MRI
Medical imaging permits high precision minimally invasive interventions even in very delicate situations but leads to complex medical procedures not easily applied in a hospital setting. The LOCALITE Navigator is an interactive navigation system that comprises state-of-the art registration and visualization of multimodal medical images for minimally invasive interventions with an interventional...
متن کاملIntraoperative real-time querying of white matter tracts during frameless stereotactic neuronavigation.
BACKGROUND Brain surgery faces important challenges when trying to achieve maximum tumor resection while avoiding postoperative neurological deficits. OBJECTIVE For surgeons to have optimal intraoperative information concerning white matter (WM) anatomy, we developed a platform that allows the intraoperative real-time querying of tractography data sets during frameless stereotactic neuronavig...
