Long-Term Efficacy and Safety of Chronic Globus Pallidus Internus Stimulation in Different Types of Primary Dystonia [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) offers a very promising therapy for medically intractable dystonia. However, little is known about the long-term benefit and safety of this procedure. We therefore performed a

In vivo measurement of human brain elasticity using a light aspiration device [PDF]

, 2009
The brain deformation that occurs during neurosurgery is a serious issue impacting the patient "safety" as well as the invasiveness of the brain surgery. Model-driven compensation is a realistic and efficient solution to solve this problem.

The separate neural control of hand movements and contact forces [PDF]

, 2009
To manipulate an object, we must simultaneously control the contact forces exerted on the object and the movements of our hand. Two alternative views for manipulation have been proposed: one in which motions and contact forces are represented and ...

Pseudoaneurysms as a complication of stereoelectroencephalography: Case series and clinical recommendations

Epilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 1193-1205, March 2026.
Abstract Objective Stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) is commonly employed in the workup for epilepsy surgery in patients with focal drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE). Intracranial hemorrhage is a known complication, with reported incidence rates ranging from .9% to 19.1%. Rarely, pseudoaneurysms have been reported in literature as a potential cause. This
