Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Improving Targeting Precision

NCT02377375 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

Last updated 2024-07-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

When comparing targeting precision between DBS in parkinsonian patients and OCD patients, an unexpected deviation from the planned targets was discovered in OCD patients (Nuttin et al., 2013). The objective of this trial is to investigate whether the use of a micro-electrode assisted technique improves targeting precision in DBS at the BNST.
