Intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring determines the final electrode position for pallidal stimulation in dystonia patients

Intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring determines the final electrode position for pallidal stimulation in dystonia patients

BackgroundBilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) is an effective treatment for refractory dystonia. Neuroradiological target and stimulation electrode trajectory planning with intraoperative microelectrode recordings (MER) and stimulation are used. With improvin...
