Functional imaging of deep brain stimulation in dystonia: a review

open access: yesDystonia, 2023
Much remains to be learned about the mechanism of benefit of deep brain stimulation in movement disorders in general and dystonia specifically. A full accounting of the pathophysiology of dystonia additionally remains unclear.

Optogenetics and deep brain stimulation neurotechnologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Brain neural network is composed of densely packed, intricately wired neurons whose activity patterns ultimately give rise to every behavior, thought, or emotion that we experience. Over the past decade, a novel neurotechnique, optogenetics that combines

Deep brain stimulation for dystonia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2012
The few controlled studies that have been carried out have shown that bilateral internal globus pallidum stimulation is a safe and long-term effective treatment for hyperkinetic disorders. However, most recent published data on deep brain stimulation (DBS) for dystonia, applied to different targets and patients, are still mainly from uncontrolled case ...

End-to-end semantic segmentation of personalized deep brain structures for non-invasive brain stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesNeural Networks 125, pp. 233-244, 2020, 2020
Electro-stimulation or modulation of deep brain regions is commonly used in clinical procedures for the treatment of several nervous system disorders. In particular, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is widely used as an affordable clinical application that is applied through electrodes attached to the scalp.

Deep brain stimulation for dystonia [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Neurodegeneration, 2014
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective surgical treatment for medication-refractory movement disorders, and has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for treatment of dystonia. The success of DBS in the treatment of dystonia depends on our understanding of the anatomy and physiology of this disorder and close ...

The Oscillatory Profile Induced by the Anxiogenic Drug FG-7142 in the Amygdala–Hippocampal Network Is Reversed by Infralimbic Deep Brain Stimulation: Relevance for Mood Disorders

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Anxiety and depression exhibit high comorbidity and share the alteration of the amygdala–hippocampal–prefrontal network, playing different roles in the ventral and dorsal hippocampi.

Effects of electrical and optogenetic deep brain stimulation on synchronized oscillatory activity in Parkinsonian basal ganglia [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Trans Neural Syst Rehabil Eng 25:2188-2195, 2017, 2017
Conventional deep brain stimulation (DBS) of basal ganglia uses high-frequency regular electrical pulses to treat Parkinsonian motor symptoms and has a series of limitations. Relatively new and not yet clinically tested optogenetic stimulation is an effective experimental stimulation technique to affect pathological network dynamics.

Deep brain and cortical stimulation for epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background : Despite optimal medical treatment, including epilepsy surgery, many epilepsy patients have uncontrolled seizures. In the last decades, interest has grown in invasive intracranial neurostimulation as a treatment for these patients ...

Neurosurgery for Psychopaths? An Ethical Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent developments in neuroscience have inspired proposals to perform deep brain stimulation on psychopathic detainees. We contend that these proposals cannot meet important ethical requirements that hold for both medical research and therapy.
