    Computed tomography (CT)-controlled stereotactic surgery uses CT scanner coordinates to guide surgical instruments precisely. This technique is applicable to all brain stereotactic surgeries for accurate targeting and adjustments.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Medical Imaging
    • Surgical Navigation

    Background:

    • Stereotactic surgery enables precise targeting within the brain.
    • Accurate navigation is crucial for effective and safe neurosurgical interventions.
    • Computed tomography (CT) provides detailed anatomical information.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the application of CT-controlled stereotactic surgery.
    • To highlight the role of CT coordinate systems in neurosurgery.
    • To establish the versatility of this method for various brain surgeries.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing the CT scanner's coordinate system for surgical planning.
    • Applying CT-derived coordinates to determine target depth and trajectory.
    • Employing intraoperative CT for real-time probe direction readjustment.
