Pallido-putaminal connectivity predicts outcomes of deep brain stimulation for cervical dystonia

Abstract:

Cervical dystonia is a non-degenerative movement disorder characterised by dysfunction of both motor and sensory cortico-basal ganglia networks. Deep brain stimulation targeted to the internal pallidum (GPi) is an established treatment, but its specific mechanisms remain elusive, and response to therapy is highly variable. Modulation of key dysfunctional networks via axonal connections is likely important. Fifteen patients underwent pre-operative diffusion-MRI acquisitions and then progressed...
