Subthalamic Nucleus: Neuroanatomical Review [PDF]
Discovered in 1865 by Jules Bernard Luys, the subthalamic nucleus is a set of small nuclei located in the diencephalon, inferior to the thalamus and superior to the substantia nigra, that can be visualized in a posterior coronal section.

Architecture of the subthalamic nucleus [PDF]
The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a major neuromodulation target for the alleviation of neurological and neuropsychiatric symptoms using deep brain stimulation (DBS). STN-DBS is today applied as treatment in Parkinson´s disease, dystonia, essential tremor,

Pain in Parkinson's disease and the role of the subthalamic nucleus.
Pain is a frequent and poorly treated symptom of Parkinson's disease, mainly due to scarce knowledge of its basic mechanisms. In Parkinson's disease, deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus is a successful treatment of motor symptoms, but also ...

Principles of gait encoding in the subthalamic nucleus of people with Parkinson’s disease
Disruption of subthalamic nucleus dynamics in Parkinson’s disease leads to impairments during walking. Here, we aimed to uncover the principles through which the subthalamic nucleus encodes functional and dysfunctional walking in people with Parkinson’s ...

Deep brain stimulation electrode position impact on parkinsonian non-motor symptoms
Background. In this study we evaluated the impact of location of deep brain stimulation electrode active contact in different parts of the subthalamic nucleus on improvement of non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods.
