Objective To study a simple, measurable and objective method for fixing stereotactic head frame. Methods A self-made stereotactic head frame ruler was used in the localization in operations of 29 cases of Parkinson's disease and 1 case of intractable cancer pain. Results Of the 30 cases,significant effects were obtained in 29 coses(96.7%) and curative effects in 1 case (3.3%). Conclusions The improved ruler can be fully applicable to the ASA-602S model stereotactic frame, being a simple, measurable and objective method for fixing stereotactic head frame and applying CT scanning orientation.
