Patent US 4,750,487

A stereo tactic frame for use with fluoroscopy is utilized to aim and guide a puncturing tool to a target located within a body. An aperture within the frame is positioned to overlie the target when viewed on a fluoroscopic image display. The frame is then rotated about two axes so that the aperture plane is made perpendicular to the beam passing through the aperture, wherein the center of the aperture is made to align with the target object.
