摘要

Background

Although stereotactic frame-based techniques remain widely used for deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation, robot-assisted procedures have demonstrated improved accuracy, enhanced precision, and reduced operative time. Our team has over two decades of experience in robot-assisted surgery and intraoperative imaging.

Method

We detail our current surgical workflow for DBS implantation, combining the Neuromate robot (Renishaw), the NeuroLocate frameless registration module, and intraoperative cone-beam CT imaging using the O-Arm system (Medtronic).

Conclusion

This approach provides a safe, efficient, and reproducible alternative to traditional methods, supporting its broader adoption in modern functional neurosurgery.
