Riassunto
These collected papers represent only a small part of the large amount of new work in the field of stereotaxy. The number of contributions to the Birmingham meeting was such that only selected papers, chosen as representative of advances in the field, could be printed. These papers present the most up to date accounts of major advances in stereotactic imaging and the renewed interest in the stereotactic treatment of movement disorders. Contents Section I.
