Stereotaxic biopsy under computed tomographic (CT) control has become a routine
procedure in neurosurgical practice and has a high degree of accuracy with a low morbidity …

Using a modified CT-directed stereotactic system we have performed MRI-directed biopsies
in five patients whose intracerebral lesions were not clearly shown by CT. Tissue sampling …

Summary¶ Background. We present the results of 100 consecutive magnetic resonance
(MR)-guided biopsies in cases where computerised tomography (CT) guiding was …

Lesions within the brain are commonly sampled using stereotactic techniques. The advent of
interventional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging now allows neurosurgeons to interactively …

MRI is being increasingly used for the detection of intracranial lesions. MRI-guided
stereotactic brain biopsy is infrequently performed. We audited our recent experience of this …

With CT we can detect an increasing number of brain^ sSons. However, the nature of the
Iesion is only tentatively presumed in most cases and histological diagnosis must be known …

Despite advances in the neuroimaging of the brain, an accurate diagnosis of intrinsic lesion
of the brain requires tissue sampling and histological verification. Seventy-one patients with …

Brain imaging has improved and more and more cerebral lesions are discovered. A direct
surgical approach can be dangerous. Stereotatic biopsy appears as an excellent alternative …

Abstract WITH COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging
stereotactic systems, biopsies of intracranial lesions can be made with safety and ease …

SIR-In publishing this paper the authors intended to highlight the ease, accuracy and safety
of frameless stereotactic biopsy. We are pleased that Dr Price (above) also prefers the …
