A new ultrasound-guided brain biopsy technique through a burr hole

Y Tsutsumi, Y Andoh, J Sakaguchi - Acta neurochirurgica, 1989 - Springer
There is a disadvantage in brain biopsy by ultrasonic guidance comparing it with the CT

Intraoperative sonography in the nonstereotaxic biopsy and aspiration of subcortical brain lesions.

JE Knake, WF Chandler… - American Journal …, 1983 - Am Soc Neuroradiology
Deep-seated brain lesions, especially small ones, present a neurosurgical challenge to
achieve tissue diagnosis with minimal damage to intervening normal brain. Needle biopsy is …

Ultrasound-guided stereotaxic biopsy using a new apparatus

MS Berger - Journal of neurosurgery, 1986 - thejns.org
✓ A skull-mounted apparatus is described for use with ultrasound probes 16 mm in diameter
