Zusammenfassung
Purpose: To investigate the effects of low and high frequency deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the right nucleus accumbens (ACC) and right internal capsule in four patients with intractable obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) under intraoperative conditions. Method and Materials: MRI was used to control the stereotactically guided implantation of an electrode for DBS of the right ACC in four patients with intractable obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). After inserting the electrode, the patients were transferred to the MRI unit. fMRI scans were performed under a…
