Towards a computational model for stimulation of the Pedunculopontine nucleus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) has recently been suggested as a new therapeutic target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, particularly those with severe gait and postural impairment [1].

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 ...

Orientation selective DBS of entorhinal cortex and medial septal nucleus modulates activity of rat brain areas involved in memory and cognition

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The recently introduced orientation selective deep brain stimulation (OS-DBS) technique freely controls the direction of the electric field’s spatial gradient by using multiple contacts with independent current sources within a multielectrode array.

Neuromodulation of the cerebellum rescues movement in a mouse model of ataxia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has potential for several movement disorders. Here the authors show that DBS improves motor function in a mouse model of ataxia.

Quantified assessment of deep brain stimulation on Parkinson’s patients with task fNIRS measurements and functional connectivity analysis: a pilot study

open access: yesChinese Neurosurgical Journal, 2021
Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has proved effective for Parkinson’s disease (PD), but the identification of stimulation parameters relies on doctors’ subjective judgment on patient behavior.

Informed consent decision-making in deep brain stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has proved useful for several movement disorders (Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, dystonia), in which first and/or second line pharmacological treatments were inefficacious.

Low-Noise Amplifier for Deep-Brain Stimulation (DBS)

open access: yesElectronics, 2022
Deep-brain stimulation (DBS) is an emerging research topic aiming to improve the quality of life of patients with brain diseases, and a great deal of effort has been focused on the development of implantable devices. This paper presents a low-noise amplifier (LNA) for the acquisition of biopotentials on DBS. This electronic module was designed in a low-

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

Local and Global Changes in Brain Metabolism during Deep Brain Stimulation for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2019
Recent approaches have suggested that deep brain stimulation (DBS) for obsessive-compulsive disorder relies on distributed networks rather than local brain modulation.
