Abstract
Stereotaxis eliminates the risk of trial and error in fluoroscopic gui dance. This technique appears ideal in the hands of those who do not h ave extensive experience with guidance of the instruments under fluoro scopic control. The procedure is atraumatic and almost free of complic ations, but acceptance of the stereotactic technique will be greater i f a special CT suite is designed not only for stereotactic microdiscet omies but also for other percutaneous diagnostic and therapeutic proce dures.
