Objectives Open questions remain regarding the optimal target, or sweetspot, for deep brain
stimulation (DBS) in, for example, Parkinson's disease. Previous studies introduced different …

Objective Subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) is a neurosurgical therapy to treat
Parkinson's disease (PD). Optimal therapeutic outcomes are not achieved in all patients due …

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for advanced Parkinson's disease.
However, identifying stimulation parameters, such as contact and current amplitudes, is time …

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) depends on precise delivery of electrical current to target
tissues. However, the specific brain structures responsible for best outcome are still debated …

Background Directional deep brain stimulation (dDBS) of the subthalamic nucleus for
Parkinson's disease (PD) increases the therapeutic window. However, empirical …

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established therapy for the treatment of Parkinson's
disease (PD) and shows great promise for the treatment of several other disorders …

Background: Achieving optimal results following deep brain stimulation (DBS) typically
involves several months of programming sessions. The Graphical User Interface for DBS …

Objective To investigate whether functional sweet spots of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in
the subthalamic nucleus (STN) can predict motor improvement in Parkinson disease (PD) …

Background Motor outcomes after subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) for
Parkinson disease (PD) vary considerably among patients and strongly depend on …

During the last 30 years, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has evolved into the clinical standard
of care as a highly effective treatment for advanced Parkinson's disease. Careful patient …
