Abstract

Stereotactic biopsy, using MRI data was performed in 38 patients with tumors and other brain lesions. MRI was made in standard success according special protocol with cut off thickness3 mm. Most difficult diagnostic and technical moments were tumor knots, necrotic areas, their geterogenesis and few samples for research. The results of stereotactic biopsy were analyzed and their neurosurgical, morphological and radiological aspects were considered.
