Architecture of the subthalamic nucleus [PDF]
Communications BiologyThe 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,

Subthalamic Nucleus: Neuroanatomical Review [PDF]
Brazilian Neurosurgery, 2017 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.

The subthalamic nucleus in the context of movement disorders [PDF]
Brain, 2003 The subthalamic nucleus (STN) has been regarded as an important modulator of basal ganglia output. It receives its major afferents from the cerebral cortex, thalamus, globus pallidus externus and brainstem, and projects mainly to both segments of the globus pallidus, substantia nigra, striatum and brainstem.

Are there three Subdivisions in the primate Subthalamic Nucleus? [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2012 The prevailing academic opinion holds that the subthalamic nucleus (STN) consists of three parts, each anatomically distinct and selectively associated with cognitive, emotional, or motor functioning.

The subthalamic nucleus : Part I: Development, cytology, topography and connections [PDF]
, 2008 This monograph on the subthalamic nucleus accentuates in Part I the gap between experimental animal and human information concerning subthalamic development, cytology, topography and connections. The light and electron microscopical cytology concerns the

Targeting the Subthalamic Nucleus [PDF]
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 2001 The small size and surrounding neuronal structures and fibre tracts make the STN a difficult stereotactic target. In this article we present the technique used by us to target the STN. Our combined experience from two centres comprises 18 lesions and 27 stimulator implants in the STN.
