Abstract: BACKGROUND In laboratory-based neuroanatomical studies, surgical freedom, the most important metric of instrument maneuverability, has been based on Heron's formula. Inaccuracies and limitations hinder this study design's applicability. A new methodology, volume of surgical freedom… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/brainsci12030405
Abstract: Background: The cranio-orbito-zygomatic (COZ) approach is a workhorse of skull base surgery, and each of its steps has a precise effect on target exposure and surgical freedom. The present study overviews the key techniques for… read more here.
