Improving Surgical Outcome Using Diffusion Tensor Imaging Techniques in Deep Brain Stimulation

IntroductionRecent advances in surgical imaging include the use of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in deep brain stimulation (DBS) and provide a detailed view of the white matter tracts and their connections which are not seen with conventional magnetic resonance imaging. Given that the efficacy of D...
