Summary

Electrical stimulation (DBS) through electrodes implanted in the dentate nucleus of the cerebellum for the treatment of tremor intractable with medication, dystonia due to cerebrovascular disease (stroke), sequelae of traumatic brain injury, and ataxia (a disease that causes incoordination of movements).
