Deep brain stimulation of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT) is an emerging therapy for refractory focal epilepsy. However, the most optimal target for stimulation has not been unambiguously described.In the present study, we investigated the correlation between the stimulation site and outcome in order to define the optimal target for deep brain stimulation in refractory epilepsy.The locations...
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a minimally invasive and reversible method to treat an increasing number of neurological and psychiatric disorders, including epilepsy. Targeting poorly defined deep structures is based in large degree on stereotactic atlas information, which may be a major source of inconsistent treatment effects.In the present study, we aimed to study whether a recently approved target...
The objective of this study was to design a calibration phantom for a surgical navigator used in a hospital environment. It addresses two major issues: the design of an accuracy phantom and the accuracy analysis of the surgical navigator in a hospital setting. The designed phantom was used to assess the accuracy of the optical tracking modality of the surgical navigator used at Oulu University Hospital,...
