Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is an effective neurosurgical
treatment for Parkinson's disease. Surgical accuracy is a critical determinant to achieve an …

Deep brain stimulation has become an established therapeutic choice to manage the
symptoms of medically refractory Parkinson's disease. Its efficacy is highly dependent on the …

BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a proven
and effective therapy for the management of the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease …

The purpose of this work is to present a new method that can be used to estimate and
mitigate RF induced currents on Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) leads. Here, we demonstrate …

Introduction: Lead movement after deep brain stimulation may occur and influence the
affected volume of stimulation. The aim of the study was to investigate differences in lead …

Background Motor outcomes after subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) for
Parkinson disease (PD) vary considerably among patients and strongly depend on …

BACKGROUND: Robotic-assisted stereotactic systems for deep brain stimulation (DBS)
have recently gained popularity because of their abilities to automate arduous human error …

Introduction Although deep brain stimulation is nowadays performed worldwide, the
biomechanical aspects of electrode implantation received little attention, mainly as …

Objective This study sought to characterize postoperative day one MRI findings in deep
brain stimulation (DBS) patients. Methods DBS patients were identified by CPT and had their …

Purpose Due to brain shift during bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery, placement
of the second electrode may be subjected to more error than that of the first electrode. The …
