Image guidance and improved accuracy of external ventricular drain tip position particularly in patients with small ventricles
J Neurosurg 130:1268–1273, 2019
External ventricular drain (EVD) insertion is one of the most common emergency neurosurgical procedures. EVDs are traditionally inserted freehand (FH) in an emergency setting, but often result in suboptimal positioning. Image-guided surgery (IGS) is selectively used to assist placement. However, the accuracy and practicality of IGS use is yet to be reported. In…
