Feng Zhang, Fangang Meng

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is the main treatment methods of Parkinson's disease (PD), and subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a commonly used surgical target. Accurate localization of electrodes in STN using imaging technology is an important factor for successful surgery. This paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of different MR imaging sequences in STN development as follows. Key words: Parkinson's disease; Subthalamic nucleus; Deep brain stimulation
