Image-Guided Dacryolocalization and Stereotactic Lacrimal Surgeries

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Principles and Practice of Lacrimal Surgery

Abstract

Accuracy and precision in surgery are most desired by any surgeon to have better outcomes. Stereotactic technology helps exactly to achieve this goal. Image guidance is reasonably well established in neurosurgery, spinal surgeries, and endoscopic skull base procedures. The term “image-guided dacryolocalization” or IGDL was proposed to encompass the use of stereotactic navigation for lacrimal disorders. The current chapter would discuss the technology, indications, techniques, and outcomes of stereotactic lacrimal surgeries.
