Optimal Target in Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease: Comparison of Atlas and Magnetic Resonance Imaging-based Stereotactic Targeting

Abstract

Objective: We aimed to compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and atlas measurements to determine the target coordinates of globus pallidus internus (GPi) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) during stereotactic neurosurgery. Methods: Eleven patients treated w
