Popis: ✓ A new technique for preoperative localization of brain lesions using magnetic resonance imaging and a marking device is described. The projection of lesions, especially superficial brain tumors, is demonstrated on the scalp, with an acceptable tolerance for open procedures. This simple and inexpensive method, which was used in a group of 34 patients, can assist surgeons in planning an operative approach to intracranial lesions.
