expose the brain. Specialized tools are used to remove the section of bone called the bone flap. The bone flap is temporarily removed, then replaced after the brain surgery has been done.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.6667px; letter-spacing: 0.01rem;\">Some craniotomy procedures may use the guidance of computers and imaging (magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] or computerized tomography [CT] scans) to reach the precise location within the brain that is to be treated. This technique requires the use of a frame placed onto the skull or a frameless system using superficially placed markers or landmarks on the scalp. When either of these imaging procedures is used along with the craniotomy procedure, it is called stereotactic craniotomy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 1.5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.6667px; letter-spacing: 0.01rem;\">Scans made of the brain, in conjunction with these computers and localizing frames, provide a three-dimensional image, for example, of a tumor within the brain. It is useful in making the distinction between tumor tissue and healthy tissue and reaching the precise location of the abnormal tissue.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\" data-vce-boxed-width=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-row vce-row--xl--has-col-background vce-row--lg--has-col-background vce-row--md--has-col-background vce-row--sm--has-col-background vce-row--xs--has-col-background vce-row--col-gap-0 on-top vce-row-equal-height vce-row-content--middle\" id=\"el-ecbed161\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-ecbed161\" data-vce-animate=\"vce-o-animate--fadeInUp\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-col vce-element--xl--has-background vce-element--lg--has-background vce-element--md--has-background vce-element--sm--has-background vce-element--xs--has-background vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-100p vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-last vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-100p vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-last vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-41-71p vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-first\" id=\"el-ba2aee3f\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-ba2aee3f\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-ba2aee3f\"><div class=\"vce-google-fonts-heading vce-google-fonts-heading--align-center vce-google-fonts-heading--color-b-255-255-255--45--5C00FF--FF7200 vce-google-fonts-heading--font-family-Quicksand\"><div class=\"vce-google-fonts-heading-wrapper\"><div class=\"vce-google-fonts-heading--background vce\" id=\"el-0c3d842a\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border background  padding margin el-0c3d842a\"><h2 class=\"vce-google-fonts-heading-inner\" style=\"font-size: 28px;
