Directional DBS of the Fornix in Alzheimer’s Disease Achieves Long-Term Benefits: A Case Report

Directional DBS of the Fornix in Alzheimer’s Disease Achieves Long-Term Benefits: A Case Report

BackgroundCurrent treatments for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) modulate global neurotransmission but are neither specific nor anatomically directed. Tailored stimulation of target nuclei will increase treatment efficacy while reducing side effects. We report the results of the first directional deep brai...
