A novel composite targeting method using high-field magnetic resonance imaging for subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation
Journal of Neurosurgery, 10/09/09
Toda H et al. – Accurate localization of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is important for proper placement of the electrodes in deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery for patients with advanced Parkinson disease. The authors evaluated the accuracy of the modified composite targeting method and the value of using high–field MR imaging for targeting the STN. The use of the modified composite targeting method referring to the multiple landmarks with 3–T MR imaging offers reliable and clinically effective target for STN DBS surgery.
