Localizers for Frameless Neuronavigation Systems

  • Published:
Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

We present here the theoretical basis and design features of original navigation localizer models. The localizers developed here have accuracy characteristics meeting the requirements of stereotactic targeting to deep brain structures for functional neurosurgical interventions.
