Magnetic Resonance and Computed Tomographic Image-Directed Stereotaxy for Animal Research

Abstract
Current stereotactic frames for animal experimentation presume normal intracranial anatomy for atlas-directed probe placement. This is an invalid assumption for animal brain tumor models, where distortions of cerebral anatomy make image-directed stereotaxy necessary. To address this need, an accurate and reproducible magnetic resonance and computed tomographic compatible image-directed stereotactic apparatus for animal experimentation is presented.
