Abstract
A stereotactic method, based on the correlation of intracerebral ra-diological and anatomical landmarks, was developed for application in experimental animals. To make possible the use of this method, particularly in the cat, a stereotactic atlas was developed with an intracerebral coordinate system, as all currently available stereotactic atlases of experimental animals are based on extracranial landmarks. Advantages of the proposed method compared to the classical Horsley-Clarke method are discussed.
