Deep brain stimulation (DBS) can be a very efficient treatment option for movement disorders and psychiatric diseases. To better understand DBS mechanisms, brain activity can be recorded using magnetoencephalography (MEG) with the stimulator turned on. However, DBS produces large artefacts compromising MEG data quality due to both the applied current and the movement of wires connecting the stimulator with the electrode. To filter out these artefacts, several methods to suppress the DBS artefact have been proposed in the literature. A comparative study evaluating each method's effectiveness, however, is missing so far. In this study, we evaluate the performance of four artefact rejection methods on MEG data from phantom recordings with DBS acquired with an Elekta Neuromag and a CTF system: (i) Hampel-filter, (ii) spectral signal space projection (S3P), (iii) independent component analysis with mutual information (ICA-MI), and (iv) temporal signal space separation (tSSS). In the sensor space, the largest increase in signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio was achieved by ICA-MI, while the best correspondence in terms of source activations was obtained by tSSS. LCMV beamforming alone was not sufficient to suppress the DBS-induced artefacts.

Background And Purpose: To train and evaluate an open-source generative adversarial networks (GANs) to create synthetic lumbar spine MRI STIR volumes from T1 and T2 sequences, providing a proof-of-concept that could allow for faster MRI examinations.

Materials And Methods: 1817 MRI examinations with sagittal T1, T2, and STIR sequences were accumulated and randomly divided into training, validation, and test sets. GANs were trained to create synthetic STIR volumes using the T1 and T2 volumes as inputs, optimized using the validation set, then applied to the test set.

This study investigated software methods for removing stimulation artefacts in recordings undertaken during deep brain stimulation (DBS). We aimed to evaluate artefact attenuation using sample recordings of evoked resonant neural activity (ERNA), as well as a synthetic ground-truth waveform that emulated observed ERNA characteristics.The synthetic waveform and eight raw DBS recordings were processed by fourteen algorithms spanning the following categories: signal modification, signal decomposition, and template subtraction.

Detailed Images of Deep Brain Stimulation Leads Using Micro-CT.

Introduction: One of the challenges in directional deep brain stimulation (DBS) is to determine the orientation of implanted electrodes relative to targeted regions. Post-operative images must be aligned with a model of the implanted lead, usually a computer-based model provided by the manufacturer. This paper shows that models can alternatively be obtained by capturing images of individual leads using micro-CT, a high-resolution CT technique.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for neurological disorders, and accurately reconstructing the DBS lead trajectories is crucial for MRI compatibility assessment and surgical planning. This paper presents a novel fully automated framework for reconstructing DBS lead trajectories from postoperative CT images. The leads were first segmented by thresholding, but would be fused together somewhere.
