Coordinate-based lead location does not predict Parkinson's disease deep brain stimulation outcome.

Coordinate-based lead location does not predict Parkinson's disease deep brain stimulation outcome.

Effective target regions for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD) have been well characterized. We sought to study whether the measured Cartesian coordinates of an implanted DBS lead are predictive of motor outcome(s). We tested the hypothesis that the position and trajector...
