Subharmonic entrainment of thalamic gamma during deep brain stimulation for multiple sclerosis tremor
By Nagaraja Sarangmat, Fernando Rodriguez Plazas, Shenghong He and 14 others.
Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for tremor arising from a range of neurological disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD), essential tremor, and multiple sclerosis (MS). The ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) of the thalamus is a well-established surgical target for tremor suppression [1]; however, the neurophysiological mechanisms through which VIM stimulation exerts its therapeutic effects remain incompletely understood.
