Summary
This study looks at why deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease can sometimes cause thinking or memory problems. Researchers will use brain scans to compare how the brain works with the stimulator turned on versus off. The goal is to help doctors choose the best stimulation settings and identify which patients are less likely to have cognitive side effects. About 55 adults with Parkinson's who already have DBS implants will take part.
