Augmented Reality in Stereotactic Neurosurgery: Current Status and Issues [PDF]

open access: yesNeurologia Medico-Chirurgica, 2023
Stereotactic neurosurgery is an established technique, but it has several limitations. In frame-based stereotaxy using a stereotactic frame, frame setting errors may decrease the accuracy of the procedure.

Deep brain stimulation of medial forebrain bundle modulates noradrenergic activity and feedforward inhibition in rodent model of depression [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the superolateral medial forebrain bundle has shown promising long-term anti-depressant effects in treatment-resistant depression patients, although the mechanisms are not clear.

Early experience of stereotactic biopsy of brain lesion in tertiary centre of Nepal

open access: yesNepal Journal of Neuroscience, 2021
Background  Stereotactic surgery or stereotaxy is a minimally invasive form of surgical intervention which makes use of a three-dimensional coordinate system to locate small targets inside the body and to perform on them some action such as ablation,

Accuracy of a magnetic resonance imaging‐based 3D printed stereotactic brain biopsy device in dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
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 ...

Radiotoxicity in robotic radiosurgery: proposing a new quality index for optimizing the treatment planning of brain metastases

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2017
Background As irradiated brain volume at 12 Gy (V12) is a predictor for radionecrosis, the purpose of the study was to develop a model for Cyberknife (CK) plans that is able to predict the lowest achievable V12 at a given tumor size and prescription dose
