DBS: surgical techniques -- Subthalamic nucleus stimulation in Parkinson's disease -- Globus pallidus stimulation -- Thalamic stimulation -- Pedunculopontine nucleus DBS in advanced Parkinson's disease -- DBS: operative physiological techniques and post-operative stimulator programming -- Microelectrode recording and microstimulation for target mapping -- Operative physiological techniques: perioperative macroelectrode recording -- Test stimulation -- DBS stimulator programming -- DBS for movement disorders -- Parkinson's disease -- Seleting appropriate Parkinson's patients for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) -- Long term results of STN stimulation for Parkinson's disease -- Long term results of GPi stimulation for Parkinson's disease -- Post-STN DBS Parkinson's disease -- Dystonia -- Selecting appropriate dystonic patients for GPi stimulation -- Results of GPi stimulation for generalized dystonia -- Results of GPi stimulation for focal and segmental dystonia -- Tremor -- Selecting appropriate tremor patients for DBS -- Results of DBS for tremor -- DBS for psychiatric conditions -- Deep brain stimulation for Gilles de la Tourette syndrome -- DBS for obsessive-compulsive disorder -- Cingulate area 25 DBS for depression -- Mathematical modelling of DBS -- Modelling approaches to DBS.
Summary: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is increasingly used for the treatment of patients with severe Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders, but the technique and science behind it is still poorly understood by most clinicians. This book is intended to provide an overview of the use of deep brain stimulation for movement disorders and provide an introduction to the developing arena of DBS for psychiatric disease. The first part of the book covers the varying surgical techniquesinvolved in implanting electrodes into various deep nuclei within the brain.
