Published Date: Dec 20, 2022

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted stereotactic electroencephalography (sEEG) electrode placement is increasingly common at specialized epilepsy centers. High accuracy and low complication rates are essential to realizing the benefits of sEEG surgery. The aim of this study was to describe for the first time in the literature a method for a stereotactic registration checkpoint to verify intraoperative accuracy during robotic-assisted sEEG and to report our institutional experience with this technique.
