A Pilot Study of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery Targeting the Subthalamic Nucleus in Elderly and Infirmed Parkinson’s Disease Patients Not Amenable to Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of unilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) gamma knife surgery (GKS) in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) not amenable to…Long-term follow up of unilateral focused ultrasound subthalamotomy for the treatment of motor features in asymmetric PD
Objective: To report long-term outcome of unilateral MR-guided focused ultrasound(MRgFUS) subthalamotomy for the treatment of PD cardinal motor features. Background: The development of MRgFUS as…Effects of MRI-guided Focused Ultrasound unilateral subthalamotomy on characteristics of EMG activity underlying reaction time and tapping test in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the effect of MRI-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRIgFUS) unilateral subthalamotomy on Parkinson disease’s (PD) motor features through EMG movement analysis. Background: Recent evidence…GammaKnife subthalamotomy for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the feasibility of GammaKnife subthalamotomy in Parkinson's disease Background: Chronic STN stimulation is an established treatment for complicated PD. Bilateral subthalamotomy may…Focused ultrasound subthalatomy restores intracortical inhibition in PD
Objective: To test the effects of focused ultrasound subthalatomy on motor cortex excitability in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI), a GABAAR-mediated inhibition…Functional lesional neurosurgery for tremor – a systematic review and meta-analysis
Objective: To evaluate the consistency and effect size as well as the incidence of persistent side effects of lesional neurosurgical interventions using radiofrequency ablation (RF),…Focused ultrasound subthalamotomy for Parkinson’s disease: A pilot study
Objective: To evaluate feasibility, safety and effectiveness of unilateral subthalamotomy performed with MRIgHIFU to treat the cardinal motor features of PD Background: Ablative functional neurosurgery for…Metabolic changes following transcranial magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound subthalamotomy
Objective: As part of a pioneer trial to investigate the use of transcranial magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound subthalamotomy (MRgFUS-STN) in Parkinson's disease (PD), this study addresses…Unilateral MR-guided high intensity focused ultrasound ablation of the cerebellothalamic tract in essential tremor
Objective: To report interim results of an ongoing trial of unilateral transcranial MR-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (tcMRgFUS) ablation of the cerebellothalamic tract (CTT) in…
