Frame-based stereotaxy evolved into frameless systems, enhancing surgical navigation. Markerless registration advances image-guided surgery, particularly in maxillofacial applications, by reducing costs and effort.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Surgical Navigation

Background:

  • Frame-based stereotaxy, a foundational neurosurgical technique, has evolved significantly.
  • Advancements include frameless stereotaxy and markerless registration, improving upon traditional methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the historical development of stereotactic navigation systems.
  • To present applications of these navigation techniques in maxillofacial surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical developments in stereotactic surgery.
  • Analysis of frameless stereotaxy and markerless registration techniques.
  • Exploration of applications in maxillofacial surgery.

Main Results:

  • Frameless stereotactic systems (navigation systems) have broadened surgical applications beyond neurosurgery.
  • Markerless registration overcomes limitations of fiducial marker-based image-guided surgery, reducing costs and effort.
  • These advancements facilitate wider adoption of image-guided surgery.

Conclusions:

  • Navigation systems have evolved from frame-based stereotaxy to sophisticated frameless approaches.
  • Markerless registration is key to expanding image-guided surgery, especially in fields like maxillofacial surgery.
  • Continued development promises more accessible and widespread use of advanced surgical navigation.
