With the introduction of adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) for Parkinson's disease, new questions emerge regarding who, why, and how to treat. This paper outlines the pathophysiological rationale ...

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), a sophisticated neurosurgical therapy, has proved useful in the control of several neurological and movement disorders. The therapy entails the insertion of devices into ...

Personalized, adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) can enhance the control of motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) compared with standard DBS, new research suggests. In a blinded randomized ...

A new study led by Bucknell University Professor Karlo Malaga, biomedical engineering, has identified key insights into optimizing deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease patients.

What Is Deep Brain Stimulation? The procedure involves implanting electrodes within areas of the brain for people with movement conditions. "The electrodes produce electrical impulses that affect ...

Neuroscience is changing treatment for many disorders, including depression. Much of the research is now being done by physical intervention in the brain—deep brain stimulation. Drug discovery ...

Adaptive deep-brain stimulation (DBS) using personalized neural signals improved Parkinson's motor symptoms in a pilot study. Adaptive DBS reduced the duration of symptoms by about 50% compared with ...

Researchers say early deep brain stimulation and emerging therapies could reshape expectations for patients diagnosed in the U.S.

Researchers from Mass General Brigham identified therapeutic targets that may optimize symptom-specific treatment for Parkinson’s disease. Brain circuits associated with symptom improvements of tremor ...

Parkinson's Disease is a movement disorder that affects the nervous system. Deep Brain Stimulation surgery, or DBS, is ...

Novel study by researchers at the Rambam Health Care Campus could help 21 million people worldwide suffering from the severe ...
