Intraoperative test stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus reduces the search space for chronic stimulation settings in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine whether intraoperative test stimulation is indicative of postoperative stimulation results. Background: It is unknown whether intraoperative testing during awake Deep Brain Stimulation…Comparison of high versus low frequency subthalamic stimulation on eye movement
Objective: Compare the effects of subthalamic stimulation using high versus low frequency on saccadic and antisaccadic eye movements of idiopathic PD patients. Background: Parkinson’s disease…Deep brain stimulation of Caudal Zona incerta: Case series
Objective: With the advancement of deep brain stimulation (DBS) techniques, a renewed interest in the posterior sub thalamic area (PSA) for the treatment of Parkinson's…PPN-GAB-PARK: Short time outcome and long term follow up in PPN-DBS
Objective: To report the short and long term outcome of bilateral PPN DBS. Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of peducolopontin nucleus (PPN) has been proposed…A machine learning approach to predict non-responders to subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in Parkinson disease patients based on preoperative characteristics
Objective: To predict the probability of individual PD patients to respond to STN DBS at one year follow up based on preoperative clinical data with…MR-guided high intensity focused ultrasound in Parkinson’s disease: A case report with a 5 year follow up
Objective: To report a case of a 44 years old male patient suffering from Parkinson’s disease for several years. DAT Scan SPECT confirmed the presynaptic…Spontaneous volume regression of a brain cyst after DBS surgery
Objective: To measure volume changes of a brain cyst following deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation as a potential biomarker of the outcome. Background: A brain…How reliable are non-blinded evaluations of motor UPDRS? a comparison of blinded vs. un-blinded UPDRS scores in 14 patients with advanced Parkinson´s disease
Objective: To investigate the reliability of scores of the motor part of the Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS III) rated by an un-blinded specialist…Karl Marx, Rosa Luxemburg, and Deep Brain Stimulation: is there a connection?
Objective: To investigate possible reasons behind some practices of deep brain stimulation (DBS) hardware providers. Background: The global success of DBS in movement disorders has…Successful treatment of secondary dystonia with deep brain stimulation of the globus pallidus internus
Objective: Improving targeting accuracy in the treatment of secondary dystonia with DBS of GPi Background: Dystonia is a very disabling disease. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of…
