Predictors of frame-based SEEG electrode implantation accuracy
This study analyzed predictive factors of electrode accuracy using a traditional frame-based technique to provide a comprehensive reference. Electrode target radial error is strongly predicted by increased implantation depth, bone thickness along the trajectory, and electrode angle at bone entry. Increased radial error is strongly associated with electrodes missing the intended sub-lobar target. Further research is required to investigate the full clinical implications of electrode inaccuracy.
