Summary

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been proposed for severe and resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder. This electrical stimulation has been tested on, and shown to be effective at, different targets (subthalamic nucleus, caudate nucleus \& nucleus accumbens). However, the efficacies of each target have never been compared directly.

This protocol aims to do so, with the hypothesis that subthalamic (STN) stimulation will be more efficacious.
