Abstract

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has become widely accepted for treatment of many neurological disorders. Its success depends on several factors, of which imaging plays a crucial role for exact targeting of the deep nuclei. T2 weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) had still been used in routine practice for a long time. However, there are some new MRI sequences and techniques available which enhances direct targeting in planning of DBS surgeries. In this mini review, those recent developments were discussed briefly.
