Survivable stereotaxic surgery in rodents.
The ability to measure extracellular basal levels of neurotransmitters in the brain of awake animals allows for the determination of effects of different systemic challenges (pharmacological or physiological) to the CNS. For example, one can directly measure how the animal's midbrain dopamine projections respond to dopamine-releasing drugs like d-amphetamine or natural stimuli like food. In thi...
متن کاملStereotaxic device for experimental eye surgery.
A sterotaxic device for experimental surgery in enucleated eyes is described. This instrument is made entirely of plastic, is inexpensive to make, and has proved to be an invaluable help in teaching microsurgical procedures to ophthalmic residents.
متن کاملTremor after head injury and its treatment by stereotaxic surgery.
Tremor, both postural and kinetic may be a late complication for victims of severe closed head injury, especially in the young, and may add to their disability. The nature of the tremor is described in eight patients. In each a stereotaxic thalamotomy was performed, dramatically relieving or reducing the severity of tremor in each instance, and resulting in improved function of the affected lim...
متن کاملMotion Planning in Stereotaxic Radiosurgery
Stereotaxic radiosurgery is a procedure which uses a beam of radiation as an ablative surgical instrument to destroy brain tumors. The beam is produced by a linear accelerator which is moved by a jointed mechanism. Radiation is concentrated by crossfiring at the tumor from multiple directions and the amount of energy deposited in normal brain tissues is reduced. Because access to the tumor is o...
متن کاملImplications of genetic variation in mouse brain structure for electrode placement by stereotaxic surgery.
The spatial locations of several forebrain and midbrain fibre tracts have been compared across seven commonly used inbred, hybrid and outbred mouse strains using a series of electrolytic lesions of known positions with respect to a stereotaxic instrument. Highly significant genetic variation was found in the position of lambda, bregma and several major fibre tracts with respect to interaural ze...
