Measuring Subthalamic Nucleus Volume of Parkinson’s Patients and Evaluating Its Relationship with Clinical Scales at Pre- and Postdeep Brain Stimulation Treatment: A Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Measuring Subthalamic Nucleus Volume of Parkinson’s Patients and Evaluating Its Relationship with Clinical Scales at Pre- and Postdeep Brain Stimulation Treatment: A Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

This study investigated potential imaging biomarkers for predicting the efficacy of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). A total of 59 PD patients and 50 healthy control subjects underwent high-resolution 3-dimensional T1-weighted b...
