Linking connectivity of deep brain stimulation of nucleus accumbens area with clinical depression improvements: a retrospective longitudinal case series

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen, Katrin Petermann, Simona Leserri

Treatment-resistant depression is a severe form of major depressive disorder and deep brain stimulation is currently an investigational treatment. The stimulation's therapeutic effect may be explained through the functional and structural connectivities be ...

Directional Local Field Potentials in the Subthalamic Nucleus During Deep Brain Implantation of Parkinson's Disease Patients

André Mercanzini, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen

Segmented deep brain stimulation leads feature directional electrodes that allow for a finer spatial control of electrical stimulation compared to traditional ring-shaped electrodes. These segmented leads have demonstrated enlarged therapeutic windows and ...

Analysis of patient-specific stimulation with segmented leads in the subthalamic nucleus

Philippe Renaud, André Mercanzini, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen

Objective Segmented deep brain stimulation leads in the subthalamic nucleus have shown to increase therapeutic window using directional stimulation. However, it is not fully understood how these segmented leads with reduced electrode size modify the volume ...

Characterization of pulse amplitude and pulse rate modulation for a human vestibular implant during acute electrical stimulation

Silvestro Micera, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen, Maurizio Ranieri

Objective. The vestibular system provides essential information about balance and spatial orientation via the brain to other sensory and motor systems. Bilateral vestibular loss significantly reduces quality of life, but vestibular implants (VIs) have demo ...

A real-time research platform to study vestibular implants with gyroscopic inputs in vestibular deficient subjects

Silvestro Micera, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen, Maurizio Ranieri

Researchers have succeeded in partly restoring damaged vestibular functionality in several animal models. Recently, acute interventions have also been demonstrated in human patients. Our previous work on a vestibular implant for humans used predefined stim ...

Investigating Ocular Movements and Vestibular Evoked Potentials for a Vestibular Neuroprosthesis: Response to Pulse Trains and Baseline Stimulation

Silvestro Micera, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen

No adequate treatment currently exists for bilateral vestibulopathy, which can result in significant decreases of social and physical functioning. To improve patients' quality of life, vestibular neuroprostheses are being developed. Efficacy of current pro ...
