Understanding Deep Brain Stimulation: In Vivo Metabolic Consequences of the Electrode Insertional Effect
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgery technique widely used in movement disorders, although its mechanism of action remains unclear. In fact, apart from the stimulation itself, the mechanical insertion of the electrode may play a crucial role. Here we aimed to distinguish between the insert...
