Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become the treatment of choice for advanced stages of
Parkinson's disease, medically intractable essential tremor, and complicated segmental and …

Purpose: Neuronavigation based on preoperative imaging data is a ubiquitous tool for
image guidance in neurosurgery. However, it is rendered unreliable when brain shift …

Objective. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a growing treatment option for movement and
psychiatric disorders. As DBS technology moves toward directional leads with increased …

Object The goal of this study was to focus on the tendency of brain shift during stereotactic
neurosurgery and the shift's impact on the unilateral and bilateral implantation of electrodes …

OBJECTIVE: To examine a case series of reoperations for deep brain stimulation (DBS)
leads in which clinical scenarios revealed suboptimal outcome from a previous operation …

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery can significantly improve the quality of life for patients
suffering from movement disorders, but the success of the procedure depends on the …

Object The success of stereotactic surgery depends upon accuracy. Tissue deformation, or
brain shift, can result in clinically significant errors. The authors measured cortical and …

Background: Brain shift may occur during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery, which may
affect the position of subcortical structures, compromising target localization. Methods: We …

Purpose The optimal electrode trajectory is needed to assist surgeons in planning Deep
Brain Stimulation (DBS). A method for image-based trajectory planning was developed and …

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has steadily evolved into an established surgical therapy for
numerous neurological disorders, most notably Parkinson's disease (PD). Traditional DBS …
