Comparison of lead localization in postoperative CT versus MRI
Objective: Evaluation of lead position accuracy may be accomplished by postoperative CT or MRI. Image distortion induced by the lead contacts in MRI question the…Baseline characteristics associated with greatest improvement in HRQL after DBS surgery
Objective: To determine the characteristics of DBS candidates associated with the greatest improvement in HRQL outcomes after surgery. Background: Site reviews of expert DBS centers…Evaluating the Clinical Efficacy of the Personal KinetiGraph Movement Recording System
Objective: To examine the clinical efficacy of the Personal KinetiGraph (PKG) movement recording in identifying patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) requiring treatment for motor symptoms.…Implicit memory analysis in patients with Parkinson’s Disease with Deep Brain Stimulation, in ON and OFF stages, using a computerized test battery.
Objective: This study aims to analyze the DBS effects on the PD patients implicit learning. Background: PD is considered the second more common neurodegenerative disease and initially,…Optimization and evaluation of whole body MRI sequences for patients with deep brain stimulators
Objective: The aim of the study was to optimize MRI sequences in order to make possible a safe MRI examination for DBS patients. The optimized…Pathway Selective Deep Brain Stimulation Derived from Patient-Specific Models
Objective: The goal of this work is to quantify the specific pathways directly activated by clinical DBS settings. Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the…Effects of bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation for chorea after pulmonary thromboendarterectomy with deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest: case report
Objective: We report bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) improved chorea after pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) with deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest. Background: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary…Quantitative measures of brain MRI as a predictive factor of cognitive outcomes after Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To explore whether pre-surgical white matter lesion volume, measured quantitatively on brain MR images, is predictive of cognitive outcomes following subthalamic nucleus deep brain…Degree, onset and longevity of benefit achieved with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) as assessed by the UPDRS.
Objective: To show the degree, onset and longevity of benefit achieved with STN DBS at our center. Background: At our center, we administer the UPDRS-III…First experience with 59 directional leads in deep brain stimulation
Objective: The feasibility of applying new directional leads (D-leads) in standard DBS procedures, possible difficulties or complications were the focus of this study. Background: DBS is…
