  Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has emerged as a transformative treatment for Parkinson's Disease (PD), particularly effective in alleviating motor symptoms such as tremors, bradykinesia, rigidity, and axial symptoms like postural instability. However, the traditional approach to DBS often involves a trial-and-error method to find the optimal stimulation...Read more

Duke Medicine researchers have created a 3D map of the human brain stem at an unprecedented level of detail using MRI technology. In a report published in Human Brain Mapping , the researchers say the new 3D model would be useful to brain surgeons treating conditions such as tremors and Parkinson’s disease with deep brain stimulation (DBS). Many...Read more
