## Abstract ## Background: The improvement of PD motor symptoms by DBS of the STN depends on exact targeting. ## Methods: A combination of MRI and multitrajectory microrecordings was used for localization of the STN in a group of 228 consecutive PD patients. ## Results: In 1% of our cases, the
## Abstract The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is currently the preferred target for chronic electrical highโfrequency stimulation in Parkinson's disease. Anatomical determination of the exact position of the STN in the individual patient, using magnetic resonance imaging, remains cumbersome, whereas ca
## Abstract The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is the best target for correcting motor disability in parkinsonian patients with highโfrequency stimulation. However, STN stimulation has also been reported to modify cognitive, emotional, and motivational functions. The aim of this study was to analyze the
