Quality assessment for images obtained using 3D printed stereotaxic frame

Output Details

This protocol describes the steps taken to assess whether MR signal noise and distortion is introduced by utilization of a 3D printed plastic stereotaxic frame. The computer-aided design files and engineering drawings for the frame used in this protocol are publicly available, with the modular design allowing for low cost and manageable manufacturing.
