Stereotactic posteroventral pallidotomy can improve motor performance in Parkinson's disease. Interruption of inhibitory pallidal projections to ventrolateral thalamus, components of a cortical-basal ganglia motor loop allows for this clinical benefit. We hypothesized that pallidotomy would lead to

## Abstract The motor areas of the cerebral cortex contain dense dopaminergic and noradrenergic innervation in humans. We looked for changes of these innervations in cases with Parkinson's disease (PD). The density of fibers immunolabeled with tyrosine hydroxylase or dopamine‐beta‐hydroxylase was e

We used the paired associative stimulation (PAS) technique to investigate associative plasticity of the sensorimotor cortex in 16 Parkinson's disease (PD) patients off and on therapy and in 10 age-matched controls. After PAS, motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitudes increased more and the cortical si
