Advancing Pre-operative Targeting for Deep Brain Stimulation in the Globus Pallidus Internus

April 3, 2021 updated by: Erik H. Middlebrooks, M.D., Mayo Clinic

Advancing Pre-operative Targeting for Deep Brain Stimulation in the Globus Pallidus Internus: Functional Segmentation Based on Probabilistic Tractography

In the proposed pilot project, MRI data will be prospectively collected to show the feasibility of the segmentation algorithm and the potential relation to final lead positioning. Patients will be selected from those undergoing GPi DBS placement. This pilot data will serve as a basis for pursuing funding for a larger trial evaluating the prospective ability of the 3T targeting study to improve outcomes and decrease complications in GPi DBS placement. Improved outcomes and patient experience would be expected to further contribute to our facility as a center of excellence for treatment of movement disorders.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: GPi DBS
Patients selected to undergo GPi DBS placement will be eligible for enrollment in the study. In addition to standard-of-care tests, subjects will undergo an MRI consisting of the proposed novel imaging protocol prior to placement of DBS. The patient will subsequently undergo standard-of-care therapy for DBS placement. Once the stimulator has been programmed post-operatively, the stimulation parameters and corresponding clinical changes will be collected and used to model the volume of activated tissue. The patient will additionally undergo a follow-up MRI used to localize the electrode within the brain to further localize the volume of activated tissue.
DBS Programming may be temporarily altered based on imaging data to measure a change in clinical symptoms.
