}PURPOSE
The authors present and evaluate a new preoperative planning method and computer software designed to reduce the risk of candidate trajectories for straight rigid tool insertion in image-guided keyhole neurosurgery.
METHODS
Trajectories are computed based on the surgeon-defined target and a candidate entry point area on the outer head surface on preoperative CT/MRI scans. A multiparameter risk card provides an estimate of the risk of each trajectory according to its proximity to…
