Abstract
Incorporation of a surgical computer system into stereotactic methodology provides the facility for efficient utilization of the multiple data bases at the disposal of the modern stereotactician. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital fluoroscopy data gathered in stereotactic conditions are digitized into a stereotactic surgical matrix for surgical planning and interactive surgical procedures. The advantages of this system are illustrated in stereotactic biopsy, interstitial irradiation, and laser resections of intracranial tumors.Keywords
