Neuroimaging and Deep Brain Stimulation [PDF]
American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2009 Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a new neurosurgical method principally used for the treatment of Parkinson disease (PD). Many new applications of DBS are under development, including the treatment of intractable psychiatric diseases. Brain imaging is used for the selection of patients for DBS, to localize the target nucleus, to detect complications ...

Neural plasticity in human brain connectivity: the effects of long term deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus in Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Positive clinical outcomes are now well established for deep brain stimulation, but little is known about the effects of long-term deep brain stimulation on brain structural and functional connectivity.

Deep brain stimulation for dystonia [PDF]
Journal of Neurology, 2016 The dystonias are a relatively rare group of movement disorders that often prove difficult to treat effectively. In recent years, advances in our understanding of genetics has allowed identification of a number of causative mutations, as well as acquired aetiologies including peri-natal insults. However, despite this progress, pharmacological treatment

Deep Brain Stimulation for Epilepsy [PDF]
Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, 2009 Introduction. There is renewed interest in the use of electrical stimulation to control seizures in patients with medically refractory epilepsy. The evidence indicates that multiple nuclei are involved in the onset, spread, or termination of seizures. Establishing electrical stimulation parameters tailored to these nuclei that best control seizures is ...

Deep Brain Stimulation for Epilepsy [PDF]
Neurotherapeutics, 2008 Many patients who suffer from medically refractory epilepsy are not candidates for resective brain surgery. Success of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in relieving a significant number of symptoms of various movement disorders paved the way for investigations into this modality for epilepsy.
