Abstract
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 from targets defined on the MR image enabled a histological diagnosis to be made in four of the five cases.Keywords
