Full-field MRI measurements of in-vivo positional brain shift reveal the significance of intra-cranial geometry and head orientation for stereotactic surgery
Abstract Positional brain shift (PBS), the sagging of the brain under the effect of gravity, is comparable in magnitude to the margin of error for the success of stereotactic interventions ( $$\sim $$ ∼ 1 mm). This non-uniform shift due to slight differences in head orientation can lead to a signif...
