Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been used for more than three decades to treat motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Today, more than 200,000 patients worldwide have been implanted with these ...

Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) provides lasting benefits for patients with moderate-to-advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD), with sustained improvements in movement and quality of ...

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been used for more than three decades to treat motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Patients attended 7.8 ± 3.7 (mean ± standard deviation; range 4–13) programming visits until a satisfactory aDBS configuration was achieved or until they reverted to cDBS (Fig. 1a, left). In patients ...

A novel, noninvasive brain stimulation approach—known as transcranial temporal interference stimulation (TIs)—may offer a new way to treat motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease without the need for ...

A new study unveils an adaptive deep brain stimulation system that adjusts in real time to prevent Parkinson's falls.

Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco have taken a step toward a long-sought goal in treating Parkinson's disease: a brain implant that can adapt to a patient's movements in real ...

Precise intraoperative localisation of subcortical brain structures remains a critical challenge in deep brain stimulation, yet openly available microelectrode recording datasets are scarce. We ...

Electricity is the brain’s language. For a decade, National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding and philanthropy have enabled UC San Francisco physician-scientists to decipher this language and use ...
