has identified key insights into optimizing deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease patients. Published in the March 21 edition of the Journal of Neurosurgery, the research pinpoints ...

Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) is known to be highly effective at treating limb motor impairments in patients with Parkinson disease (PD), but its effects on speech ...

Using MRI and CT imaging, researchers created 3D electric field models for each patient, enabling them to visualize how DBS affected specific regions of the STN. This approach revealed that ...
