Stereotactic Biopsies

Stereotactic procedures can be performed either with a "frame" or "frameless," depending on the surgeon's preference and the characteristics of the lesion's location and size.

In the case of a frameless biopsy, a special MRI or CT scan is obtained one or two days before the scheduled biopsy. This image is imported into a computer system, generating a 3-dimensional image of the brain and the biopsy target during the surgery. Utilizing this image alongside a biopsy guidance arm, the surgeon navigates the needle safely to the tumor target.

For a frame-based biopsy, a device called a stereotactic frame is affixed to the patient's head before obtaining the MRI or CT scan to be utilized with the image guidance system. The frame proves particularly beneficial for directing the biopsy needle to small or deeper targets within the brain. Both approaches boast comparable safety and success records. In both frame and frameless biopsies, a small incision is made, and a small hole is drilled in the skull to allow the needle access to the target. At the conclusion of the operation, the needle is extracted, and the incision is closed with sutures or staples. The procedure can be conducted under general anesthesia or with sedation, depending on whether the patient is asleep or drowsy but not fully unconscious.
