mavridis’ area targeting for deep brain stimulation in psychiatric disorders: stereotactic microanatomy and technical aspects
conclusions ma is nowadays the most accurate stereotactic anatomic guide for targeting the human na. it is a representative example of how stereotactic microanatomy could serve the development of stereotactic microneurosurgery. following the currently used trajectory through the alic, a dbs electrode placement within the na, targeting the ma, is feasible, allowing either na or alic stimulation....
متن کاملVentrolateral Preoptic Nucleus of Hypothalamus; A Possible Target for Deep Brain Stimulation for Treatment of Sexual Dysfunction
Sexual function and orientation is a complex platform of human personality which is being modulated by several brain circuities which is less understood currently. Recently, several studies have demonstrated interesting results regarding the role of several brain locations in sexual behaviors and orientation. Sexual arousal in homosexual men are associated with activation of the left angular gy...
متن کاملThe Pedunculopontine Nucleus as Alternative Target for Deep Brain Stimulation
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with motor and nonmotor symptoms. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical treatment where an electrode is implanted in a certain area in the brain. In PD this is mostly done in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) or the globus pallidus interna (GPi). High frequency stimulation (~130 Hz) is often a successful treatment. The peduncul...
متن کاملOrientation selective deep brain stimulation.
OBJECTIVE Target selectivity of deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy is critical, as the precise locus and pattern of the stimulation dictates the degree to which desired treatment responses are achieved and adverse side effects are avoided. There is a clear clinical need to improve DBS technology beyond currently available stimulation steering and shaping approaches. We introduce orientation s...
متن کاملA target-specific electrode and lead design for internal globus pallidus deep brain stimulation.
In nearly all deep brain stimulation (DBS) applications, the same quadripolar electrode design is used for different anatomical targets even if shape and volume differences exist between nuclei. Taking into account the electrode location within the internal globus pallidus (GPi) and the size of the GPi, 2 electrodes were designed in order to improve the therapeutic benefit, to minimize side eff...
