MR tractography (MRT) can also be of use in surgical planning as it can identify peripheral nerve abnormalities with a high correlation to intraoperative findings and has higher accuracy than MR neurography alone. [9] MRT uses diffusion tensor imaging to visualize the directional movement of water molecules along nerve tracts. Often an ...

The surgical segment navigator (SSN) is a computer-based system for use in surgical navigation. It is integrated into a common platform , together with the surgical tool navigator (STN), the surgical microscope navigator (SMN) and the 6 DOF manipulator (MKM), developed by Carl Zeiss .
Surgery [a] is a medical specialty that uses manual and instrumental techniques to diagnose or treat pathological conditions (e.g., trauma, disease, injury, malignancy), to alter bodily functions (e.g., malabsorption created by bariatric surgery such as gastric bypass), to reconstruct or alter aesthetics and appearance (cosmetic surgery), or to remove unwanted tissues (body fat, glands, scars ...
Brainlab was founded in Munich in 1989, by CEO Stefan Vilsmeier. [7] The first Brainlab product was a mouse-controlled, menu-driven surgical planning and navigation software, introduced in 1990 at the University of Vienna and exhibited at the Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS) Annual Scientific Meeting in Washington, D.C. in 1992.
