The Mathematics of Three N-Localizers Used Together for Stereotactic Neurosurgery
The N-localizer enjoys widespread use in image-guided stereotactic neurosurgery and radiosurgery. This article derives the mathematical equations that are used with three N-localizers and provides analogies, explanations, and appendices in order to promote a deeper understanding of the mathematical principles that govern the N-localizer.
متن کاملThe Mathematics of Three or More N- Localizers for Stereotactic Neurosurgery
The mathematics that were originally developed for the N-localizer apply to three N-localizers that produce three sets of fiducials in a tomographic image. Some applications of the Nlocalizer use four N-localizers; however, the mathematics that apply to three N-localizers do not apply to four N-localizers. One solution to this problem is to ignore one of the four Nlocalizers in order that the m...

متن کاملSimulation for Robotic Stereotactic Neurosurgery
Through the development of different research and commercial systems, robotic neurosurgery slowly becomes more standard in the medical field. Beyond other advantages, the possibility of frameless neurosurgery is an important reason for their consideration. However, the use of robots in these applications brings problems regarding robot-patient positioning and possible influence of kinematic res...
