Stereotaxic instruments have wide use in neuroscience research. In certain of these machines the electrode can be introduced at an angle as well as perpendicularly. Computation of instrument settings to place the electrode in the desired location is the problem this paper addresses. Mathematical formulae are presented that allow a computer to calculate instrument settings given coordinates and angles read from a stereotaxic atlas.
立体定向仪器在神经科学研究中有着广泛的应用。在某些这类仪器中,电极既可以垂直插入,也可以倾斜插入。本文要解决的问题是计算仪器设置,以便将电极放置在所需位置。文中给出了数学公式,可让计算机根据从立体定向图谱读取的坐标和角度来计算仪器设置。
