BELdART-SRS: First results of the Belgian national audits in intracranial stereotaxy

open access: yes, 2018
BELdART has started its audit program for intracranial stereotaxy using a combination of L-α-alanine-EMR dosimetry and Gafchromic® EBT3 films. The audit consists of basic testing in water and in a RW3 slab phantom as well as an End-To-End testing of SRS ...

Two-step grafting significantly enhances the survival of foetal dopaminergic transplants and induces graft-derived vascularisation in a 6-OHDA model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
Following transplantation of foetal primary dopamine (DA)-rich tissue for neurorestaurative treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD), only 5–10% of the functionally relevant DAergic cells survive both in experimental models and in clinical studies.

Accuracy of frame-based and frameless systems for deep brain stimulation: A meta-analysis

open access: yes, 2018
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for movement disorders. It relies on the accurate placement of leads within small nuclei in the basal ganglia. Traditionally, this has been done with great success using frame-based stereotaxy.
