Project Overview
The objective of our research is to make conventional diagnostic closed high-field MRI scanners available for guiding deep brain stimulation electrode placement interventions. Our approach is to employ an MRI-compatible robotic assistant for guiding DBS electrode insertion under direct, real-time MR image guidance. The system will allow interactive probe alignment under real-time imaging in standard diagnostic high-field MR scanners. Use of a robotic assistant will minimize the potential for human error and mis-registration associated with the current procedure and will better address the practical issues of operating in an MR scanner bore.
