Abstract Background Unilateral magnetic resonance guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy reduces tremor in essential tremor, yet disability often persists on the untreated side. The added benefit and safety of a staged contralateral lesion remain uncertain.

Subthalamic projection to nucleus tegmenti pedunculopontinus in the rat
A projection from the subthalamic nucleus to the nucleus tegmenti pedunculopontinus has been demonstrated in the rat using retrograde and anterograde transport of horseradish peroxidase.

Focused stimulation of dorsal subthalamic nucleus improves reactive inhibitory control of action impulses [PDF]
Frontal-basal ganglia circuitry dysfunction caused by Parkinson's disease impairs important executive cognitive processes, such as the ability to inhibit impulsive action tendencies.

Effects of aging on nitrergic neurons in human striatum and subthalamic nucleus
Nitric oxide (NO) is a major neurotransmitter associated with motor control in basal ganglia. Movement disorders, as essential tremor and Parkinson’s disease, are more prevalent on aged individuals.

Abstract Background Despite widespread cortical involvement in Lewy body diseases, conventional gray matter magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows limited sensitivity. Diffusion‐weighted MRI‐derived microstructural measures have shown utility in Alzheimer's disease, but their application across the Lewy body disease spectrum remains limited ...

Abstract Background Relatively little is known about voice and speech abnormalities and their changes after deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with dystonia. Objective The aim was to determine the incidence of speech abnormalities, including laryngeal dystonia, among patients with dystonia receiving DBS and to characterize their response to this ...

Functional MRI with active, fully implanted, deep brain stimulation systems: Safety and experimental confounds [PDF]
We investigated safety issues and potential experimental confounds when performing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) investigations in human subjects with fully implanted, active, deep brain stimulation (DBS) systems.
