    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Medical Imaging
    • Computer-Aided Surgery

    Background:

    • Stereotactic surgery requires precise targeting of deep brain structures.
    • Accurate pre-operative planning and intra-operative guidance are crucial for patient safety and outcomes.
    • Existing methods may lack integrated simulation and visualization capabilities.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and report a computer program system for simulating stereotactic operations.
    • To integrate determination of intracerebral structures and electrode tracts using bony reference points.
    • To provide a visual tool for planning and verifying electrode placement within target structures.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a computer program system for stereotactic operation simulation.
    • Utilizing bony reference points for determining intracerebral structures and electrode tracts.
    • Calculation of stereotactic apparatus parameters.
    • Incorporation of a library of brain sections for visualization.

    Main Results:

    • The system allows for the simulation of stereotactic operations.
    • Intracerebral structures and electrode tracts can be determined using bony reference points.
    • Parameters for stereotactic apparatus are calculated.
    • Visualization of the electrode tract within target structures is provided on a computer display.

    Conclusions:

    • The reported computer program system facilitates stereotactic surgery simulation.
    • It enables precise determination of anatomical targets and electrode trajectories.
    • The visualization feature aids in surgical planning and execution for neurosurgical interventions.
