Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Neurology
  • Medical Imaging

Context:

  • Stereotactic techniques are vital for minimally invasive deep brain access.
  • Subthalamic nucleus stimulation is a common treatment for Parkinson disease.
  • Stereotactic evaluation is also used for epilepsy.

Purpose:

  • To highlight the importance of three-dimensional targeting in stereotactic neurosurgery.
  • To discuss the role of electrode trajectory in subthalamic nucleus stimulation outcomes.
  • To emphasize the integration of clinical, neural, and anatomical data for patient-specific treatment.

Summary:

  • Stereotactic surgery allows precise targeting of deep brain structures with minimal invasion.
  • Accurate three-dimensional anatomical targeting, including electrode trajectory, is essential for effective neurosurgical procedures.
