Case series investigating the differences between stimulation of rostral zona incerta region in isolation or in conjunction with the subthalamic nucleus on acute clinical effects for Parkinson’s disease

Background: Subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a highly effective therapy for movement disorders including Parkinson’s disease (PD). One focus of research has been to explore whether stimulation of the rostral zona incerta (rZI) region contributes to the efficacy observed in S...
