Neuro-navigation is a precise positioning technique for designing a surgical plan before surgery and guiding the operation in real time during surgery. Its significance lies in determining the location and boundary of the lesion to ensure minimally invasive surgery.

Introduction
There are three main types of neuronavigation:
Stereotaxy neuronavigation (SNN) is stereotaxy-guided operative neurosurgery or frame stereotactic neurosurgery.
MR imaging neuronavigation (INN) stands for MR image-guided operative neurosurgery or frameless stereotactic neurosurgery.
Ultrasonic echo neuronavigation (ENN) is ultrasound-guided operative neurosurgery or echo stereotactic neurosurgery.
