Scientists map Parkinson's brain signals during surgery to find better treatment targets

NCT ID NCT06692920

Summary

This study aims to understand how different brain areas communicate in Parkinson's disease to improve deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment. Researchers will record brain activity from 25 Parkinson's patients during their scheduled DBS surgery using an additional thin sensor strip placed through the same surgical opening. By comparing brain signals during simple movement tasks, they hope to identify patterns that could help target DBS therapy more effectively in the future.
