Résumé
We developed, tested, and validated a novel, noninvasive, Leksell G frame-based fiducial attachment, for use in stereotactic registration for stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG). Use of the device increased the number of fixed reference points available for registration, while obviating the need for additional scalp incisions. We report here on our experience and safety profile of using the device. We collected registration data using the fiducial device across 25 adult and pediatric patients with epilepsy consecutively undergoing robotic-guided sEEG for invasive epilepsy monitoring, treated between May 2022 and July 2023. ROSA One Brain was used for trajectory planning and electrode implantation. Postoperative clinical and radiographic data were computed and quantified, including mean registration error for all patients. Entry point, target point (TP), and angular errors were measured. Descriptive statistics and correlation coefficients for error were calculated. Twenty-five patients underwent robotic-guided sEEG implantation (11 patients, bilateral; 10 patients, left unilateral; 4 patients, right). The mean number of electrodes per patient was 18 ± 3. The average mean registration error was 0.77 ± 0.11 mm. All patients were implanted with Ad-Tech depth electrodes. No clinically relevant complications were reported. Analysis of trajectory error was performed on 446 electrodes. The median entry point error was 1.03 mm (IQR 0.69-1.54). The median TP error was 2.26 mm (IQR 1.63-2.93). The mean angular error was 0.03 radians (IQR 0.02-0.05). There was no significant correlation between root mean square error and lead error. Root mean square error did not appreciably change over time, nor were there any significant changes in average angular, entry point, or TP error metrics. A novel, noninvasive, Leksell G frame-based fiducial attachment was developed, tested, and validated, facilitating O-arm-based stereotactic registration for sEEG. This simple innovation maintained an excellent accuracy and safety profile for sEEG procedures in epilepsy patients, with the added advantages of providing additional reference points for stereotactic registration, without requiring additional scalp incisions.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVE
We developed, tested, and validated a novel, noninvasive, Leksell G frame-based fiducial attachment, for use in stereotactic registration for stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG). Use of the device increased the number of fixed reference points available for registration, while obviating the need for additional scalp incisions. We report here on our experience and safety profile of using the device.
METHODS
METHODS
We collected registration data using the fiducial device across 25 adult and pediatric patients with epilepsy consecutively undergoing robotic-guided sEEG for invasive epilepsy monitoring, treated between May 2022 and July 2023. ROSA One Brain was used for trajectory planning and electrode implantation. Postoperative clinical and radiographic data were computed and quantified, including mean registration error for all patients. Entry point, target point (TP), and angular errors were measured. Descriptive statistics and correlation coefficients for error were calculated.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Twenty-five patients underwent robotic-guided sEEG implantation (11 patients, bilateral; 10 patients, left unilateral; 4 patients, right). The mean number of electrodes per patient was 18 ± 3. The average mean registration error was 0.77 ± 0.11 mm. All patients were implanted with Ad-Tech depth electrodes. No clinically relevant complications were reported. Analysis of trajectory error was performed on 446 electrodes. The median entry point error was 1.03 mm (IQR 0.69-1.54). The median TP error was 2.26 mm (IQR 1.63-2.93). The mean angular error was 0.03 radians (IQR 0.02-0.05). There was no significant correlation between root mean square error and lead error. Root mean square error did not appreciably change over time, nor were there any significant changes in average angular, entry point, or TP error metrics.

CONCLUSIONS
A novel, noninvasive, Leksell G frame-based fiducial attachment was developed, tested, and validated, facilitating O-arm-based stereotactic registration for sEEG. This simple innovation maintained an excellent accuracy and safety profile for sEEG procedures in epilepsy patients, with the added advantages of providing additional reference points for stereotactic registration, without requiring additional scalp incisions.
