Accurate Characterization of the Main Trunk of the Anterior Cerebral Artery by Means of Intraoperative Sononavigation With Doppler Sonography

Abstract

Intraoperative sononavigation with Doppler sonography accurately localized the main trunk of the ACA and enabled preservation of this structure during tumor resection. This method may be applicable to the characterization of other critical arteries and may allow tumor resection with decreased morbidity.
