Configuration of the MRI-guided robotic neurosurgery system. The stereotactic manipulator is placed within the scanner bore and the MRI robot controller resides inside the scanner room. The robot controller communicates with the control computer within the Interface Box through a fiber optic link. The robot control software running on the control computer communicates with 3D Slicer navigation software through OpenIGTLink.
