Pilot Study for Considering Subthalamic Nucleus Anatomy during Stimulation Using Directional Leads

Objective Directional leads are used for deep brain stimulation (DBS). Two of the four contacts of the leads are divided into three parts, enabling controlled stimulation in a circumferential direction. The direction of adverse effects evoked by DBS in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and stimulation s...
