Article Synopsis
- * The study investigates the mismatch negativity (a brain response to sensory changes) in individuals with and without visual hallucinations to determine its potential as a psychosis marker in Parkinson's.
- * Results show that those with visual hallucinations exhibit reduced mismatch negativity compared to those without, suggesting that greater hallucination severity correlates with lower amplitude of this brain response, potentially linking serotonergic mechanisms to hallucinations.
MRI-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) lesioning is an innovative, safe and effective treatment which provides an innovative development in the field of minimally invasive stereotactic neurosurgery. Based on the application of focused ultrasound energy under full MR planning and thermal imaging control, unilateral lesioning of the thalamus, subthalamic nucleus, and globus pallidus is indicated for the treatment of movement disorders, including essential tremor, Parkinson's disease, and dystonia. We started to apply this technique in February 2019 for the treatment of patients with movement disorders.
