Performing a craniotomy will cause brain tissue to shift. As a result of the craniotomy, the accuracy of stereotactic localization techniques is reduced unless the brain shift can ...
Abstract. Stereotactic techniques are prevalent in neurosurgery. A fundamental assumption of stereotaxis is that the brain is a rigid body. It has been demonstrated, however, that ...
Abstract. In medical imaging, signals acquired in non-Cartesian coordinate systems are common. For instance, CT and MRI often produce significantly higher resolution within scan p...
Extracting 3D structures from volumetric images like MRI or CT is becoming a routine process for diagnosis based on quantitation, for radiotherapy planning, for surgical planning a...
