Abstract

A useful method that makes stereotactic neurosurgery safer, is developed. It yields an integrated stereoscopic image of the cerebral blood vessels, CT view of tumor and simulated electrode trajectory, allowing the surgeon to choose any electrode direction that looks convenient to him, without imminent danger of causing a haemorrhage.
