Deep brain stimulation atlas and artificial intelligence could tailor Parkinson's care
A research team from Mass General Brigham has developed a symptom atlas for Parkinson’s disease and an associated algorithm to inform personalized deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatments.
The researchers underscored that DBS has been demonstrated to improve four major Parkinson’s disease symptoms: tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity and axial symptoms. However, DBS does not improve all symptoms equally.
