Abstract

Planning intracranial neurosurgery involves understanding the threé-dimensional interrelationships of normal and pathologic structures, and contrasting alternate surgical approaches. The present study demonstrates the usefulness of interactive 3D imaging of CT data for surgical planning. Imaging options allow the surgeon to manipulate structures, obtain quantitative data on spatial relations, and contrast alternate surgical approaches based on 3D images similar to what is seen during surgery. The surgeon can choose the surgical approach that permits the best tumor exposure with minimal disruption of neural structures.
