The Mathematics of Three N-Localizers Used Together for Stereotactic Neurosurgery.

Russell A Brown1.   

Abstract

The N-localizer enjoys widespread use in image-guided stereotactic neurosurgery and radiosurgery. This article derives the mathematical equations that are used with three N-localizers and provides analogies, explanations, and appendices in order to promote a deeper understanding of the mathematical principles that govern the N-localizer.
