Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Nigrostriatal microstructural integrity has been suggested as a biomarker for levodopa response in Parkinson's disease (PD), which is a strong predictor for motor response to deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN). This study aimed to explore the impact of microstructural integrity of the substantia nigra (SN), STN, and putamen on motor response to STN-DBS using diffusion microstructure imaging.
