The Silent Transformation of Stereotactic Brain Biopsies After the Introduction of Robotics. [PDF]

Int J Med Robot
ABSTRACT Background In frame‐based stereotaxy, the design of the frame limits trajectory selection, e.g., to the temporal lobe and posterior fossa. We hypothesise that frame‐less neuronavigation and robotic technology might have expanded these stereotactic corridors. Methods We analysed 376 frame‐based, neuronavigated and robotic brain biopsies.

Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

Stereotactic Thermal Ablation of Liver Tumors: 3D Planning, Multiple Needle Approach, and Intraprocedural Image Fusion Are the Key to Success—A Narrative Review

Biology, 2021
Thermal ablation is an emerging, potentially curative approach in treating primary and metastatic liver cancer. Different technologies are available, with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA) being the most widely used.

Reliability of Stereotactic Radiofrequency Ablation (SRFA) for Malignant Liver Tumors: Novice versus Experienced Operators

Biology, 2023
Purpose: To compare the results of a novice with those of experienced interventional radiologists (IRs) for stereotactic radiofrequency ablation (SRFA) of malignant liver tumors in terms of safety, technical success, and local tumor control.

Neuroanatomical Reconstruction of the Canine Visual Pathway Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2020
The first anatomical atlas of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of white matter pathways in the canine brain was published in 2013; however, the anatomical orientation of the entire visual pathway in the canine brain, from the retina to the cortex, has not ...

SEEG in 3D: Interictal Source Localization From Intracerebral Recordings

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundStereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) uses a three-dimensional configuration of depth electrodes to localize epileptiform activity, but traditional analysis of SEEG is spatially restricted to the point locations of the electrode contacts ...

Stereotactic radiosurgery of benign brain tumors in elderly patients: evaluation of outcome and toxicity

Radiation Oncology, 2020
Background Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is widely accepted as a therapeutic option for meningiomas (M) and vestibular schwannomas (VS). However, data on outcome and toxicity in the elderly population have rarely been reported in detail.
