Operative neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.)
Mar 1, 2022
BACKGROUND: Methodological approaches to deep brain stimulation (DBS) continue to evolve from awake frame-based to asleep frameless procedures with robotic assistance, primarily directed to optimize operative efficiency, lead accuracy, and patient co...
BACKGROUND: The pursuit of improved accuracy for localization and electrode implantation in deep brain stimulation (DBS) and stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) has fostered an abundance of disparate surgical/stereotactic practices. Specific practice...
Operative neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.)
Oct 15, 2020
BACKGROUND: Robotics in neurosurgery has demonstrated widening indications and rapid growth in recent years. Robotic precision and reproducibility are especially pertinent to the field of functional neurosurgery. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) requires...
BACKGROUND: Frameless robotic-assisted surgery is an innovative technique for deep brain stimulation (DBS) that has not been assessed in a large cohort of patients.
OBJECTIVE: Despite numerous imaging studies highlighting the importance of the thalamus in a patient's surgical prognosis, human electrophysiological studies involving the limbic thalamic nuclei are limited. The objective of this study was to evaluat...
BACKGROUND: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective surgical technique used to ameliorate the motor symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease. One of the key elements that determine successful patient outcomes is the accurate positioning of t...
BACKGROUND: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a proven and effective therapy for the management of the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). While accurate positioning of the stimulating electrode is critical for ...
