Stereotaxic Surgeries and In Vivo Techniques
The purpose of this chapter is to describe the rationale for and process of penetrating the brain in a living animal. Accessing the brain allows a scientist to measure the activity and neurochemistry of cells in vivo, as well as to manipulate their activity to determine effects on behavior. To gain access to an animal's brain, scientists must perform a

Techniques for improving stereotaxic accuracy in Macaca fascicularis
Sources of stereotaxic variability in long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) were examined by X-ray techniques. Accuracy in the vertical dimension can be improved significantly by measuring from the top of the brain rather than from the Frankfurt plane established by external bony landmarks.

Computer-Aided Localization Techniques for Stereotaxic Surgery
Two computer programs were written which localize coordinates of interest for stereotaxic procedures using the Leksell frame. The first program computes frame coordinates for a given point in a reference brain atlas. Landmarks used are the anterior and posterior commissures and the brain midline.

Techniques and problems in the stereotaxic placement of subcortical lesions in infant rats
Abstract Techniques used in the stereotaxic placement of subcortical lesions in infant rat pups of the Long-Evans strain are outlined. Co-ordinates and lesion parameters for septal, hippocampal, caudate, and amygdaloid lesions at seven days of age are presented. Housing and handling procedures which increase survival rates are discussed.

Techniques for Intracranial Stereotaxic Injections of Adeno‐Associated Viral Vectors in Adult Mice
AbstractStereotaxic intracranial injection of viral vectors is a valuable technique to directly deliver genetic material to a specific population of cells in the central nervous system of a mouse model. This enables scientists to test candidate gene therapies or disease modulators that can then provide insight into the pathological mechanisms of ...

Stereotaxic radiotherapy technique for small intracranial lesions
A stereotaxic radiotherapy technique that permits accurate delivery of highly localized dose to a small intracranial target has been developed. The technique facilitates precise integration of the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures including target localization, treatment planning, simulation, repetitive patient irradiation, and daily treatment ...
