C-clamp (Rogue Research, Montreal, Canada) used to fix the head in position for MRI-guided surgery without a stereotaxic frame. Several pins fix the clamp to the skull and securely hold the animal's head in place. Three sensors attached to the C-clamp (left) can be picked up by a position sensor in the software of the Brainsight Vet 2 system to accurately determine the locations of different components of the cranial implant.
