Robot-guided stereoelectroencephalography without a computed tomography scan for referencing: Analysis of accuracy.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS Jan 8, 2018
OBJECTIVE: Recent studies with robot-guided stereotaxy use computed tomography (CT) scans for referencing. We will provide evidence that using preoperative MRI datasets referenced with a laser scan of the patient's face is sufficient for sEEG implant...
