Zusammenfassung

Question: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a promising therapy for neurological and psychiatric disorders. However, the underlying mechanism of action of DBS remains unknown. Functional imaging studies in the rat brain, such as 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-Positron Emission Tomography (18F-FDG-PET), reflecting changes in neural activity, may help elucidate the mechanism of action of DBS throughout the brain and potentially improve clinical outcome. To our knowledge, no DBS 18F-FDG-PET studies have been done in the healthy rat brain. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hippocampal DBS on regional cere…
