. Anatomical landmarks for stereotactic surgical procedures like deep brain electrodes implantation for Parkinson’s Disease has been performed since a long time ago through low-field magnetic resonance image (MRI) such as 1.5 Tesla (T) apparatus. Methods: We describe a direct method of visualization of subthalamic nucleus. For this purpose, a routine 1.5T MRI images are taken, and undergoes further fusion with 3T MRI pictures. Results. The result of image fusion allows tridimensional reconstructions, and a better differentiation between white matter and gray matter of the brain. A higher resolution also gives better identification of subthalamic nucleus, skull base nucleus, red nucleus, as well as other anatomical landmarks, resulting in higher accuracy of the procedure. Conclusion. A computational platform combining these two MRIs (3T and 1.5T) has reached more accuracy for surgical implantation of electrodes in Deep Brain Stimulation for subthalamic nucleus.
