Abstract

BACKGROUND: A frameless stereotactic robot-assisted system allows stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) electrodes to span multiple lobes. As the angularity and length are increased, maintaining accuracy of the electrodes becomes more challenging. The goal of this study was to analyze the factors that influence the accuracy of multilobe-spanning SEEG electrodes inserted using a frameless stereotactic robot-assisted system.
