Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The main goal is to find out what are the optimal distances to these reference fiber tracts when stimulating and to find the optimal target. This has to be evaluated for each target, such as globus pallidus (Gpi), subthalamic nucleus (STN) and ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM) separately. This is of special importance as the investigators can demonstrate the internal capsule, which is often a generator of stimulation-induced side effects: tetanic muscle contractions, dysarthria and gaze deviations.
