Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The identification of functional regions, in particular the subthalamic nucleus, through microelectrode recording (MER) is the key step in deep brain stimulation (DBS). To eliminate variability in a neurosurgeon's judgment, this study presents an online identification method for identifying functional regions along the electrode trajectory.
