ISOLATION OF THE BRAIN-RELATED FACTOR OF THE ERROR BETWEEN INTENDED AND ACHIEVED POSITION OF DEEP BRAIN STIMULATION ELECTRODES IMPLANTED INTO THE SUBTHALAMIC NUCLEUS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE

Abstract

Elimination of the technical factors of error during STN deep brain stimulation implantation can result in a consistent posteromedial error. Implantation accuracy may be improved by compensation for this error in advance.
