Ultrasound-based registration eliminates the need for physical contact with the bone surface as in point-based registration. As a result, non-invasive registration could fully unlock the potential of computer-assisted surgery, enabling development of the next generation of minimally invasive surgical procedures.
SEP surgery for colloid cysts and intraventricular tumors proved to be a safe and effective alternative to conventional microsurgical resection. This technique was not limited by the vascularity, friability, or size of any of the lesions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
