Abstract
A stereotactic frame includes a vertical column that extends up from a base. A first laterally extending support arm extends from a first side of the column and a second laterally extending support arm extends from a second side of the column. One of the first or second support arms may include a transducer assembly. The transducer assembly may move a focal point of the transducer in different lateral and longitudinal horizontal positions and different vertical positions. The transducer assembly also may move the focal point of the transducer beam into different pivoting angled positions. The stereotactic frame applies repeatable ultrasonic energy to targets inside a patient without using invasive attachment procedures and without having to repeatedly use expensive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines.
