Multimodal Investigation of Cortico-Basal Ganglia-Thalamo-Cortical Network Dynamics in Dystonic Patients with Deep Brain Stimulation
The goal of this prospective open label study is to elucidate the pathophysiology of dystonia and to understand how deep brain stimulation (DBS) influences brain networks. The investigators will enroll patients with dystonia implanted with DBS of the Globus Pallidus internus (GPi) with sensing implantable neurostimulators, capable of measuring GPi …
The STEREO-DBS ET Study: 7-Tesla MRI Brain Network Analysis for Deep Brain Stimulation in Essential Tremor
Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the thalamus is an effective surgical treatment for the patients with advanced essential tremor, despite optimal pharmacological treatment. However, individual improvement after DBS remains variable and 20% of patients experience side effects. To date, DBS-electrode placement and settings in the highly connected thalamus are …
Short- and Long-term Behavioral, Cognitive and Motor Outcomes of Frameless Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients With Parkinson's Disease: a Prospective Observational Study
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the improvement in quality of life after deep brain stimulation surgery with frameless technique by comparing the PDQ-39 scale score at baseline (before surgery) and one year after surgery.
Neural Mechanisms and Clinical Applications of DBS for Modulating Sleep Dysregulation in PD
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder characterized by both motor and non-motor symptoms. Subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) effectively alleviates motor symptoms; however, non-motor symptoms such as sleep disorders significantly impair patients' quality of life. While preliminary evidence suggests DBS may improve sleep, the underlying neural …
Udall Project 1 Aim 4
By defining the strength and direction of connectivity patterns at rest and during movement across the basal ganglia-thalamocortical (BGTC) network we will characterize the role of individual circuits in motor performance and cognitive function, paving the way for future development of optimization algorithms for DBS that take advantage of this …
