Accurate stereotactic navigation depends strongly upon the spatial fidelity of the image used for registration. Clinically significant levels of geometric distortion are present in standard MR images, limiting their utility. A technique for correction of all geometric distortions in spine echo MR images was assessed in a prospective clinical trial of 19 stereotactic craniotomies. The Euclidean error in target registration between CT and MR was significantly reduced, from 3.833 +/- 0.992 to 1.986 +/- 0.605 mm. The results of this clinical trial support the incorporation of this MR image rectification protocol into standard clinical practice.
