Accuracy of a magnetic resonance imaging‐based 3D printed stereotactic brain biopsy device in dogs [PDF]
Background Brain biopsy of intracranial lesions is often necessary to determine specific therapy. The cost of the currently used stereotactic rigid frame and optical tracking systems for brain biopsy in dogs is often prohibitive or accuracy is not ...
