Original lecture slide 10 comparing anatomical GPi and pathway-based VIM/DRT targets

GPi & VIM / DRT

  • GPi
  • Anatomical target
  • Putamen
  • GPe
  • GPi (posteroventral)
  • Internal Capsule
  • Optic Tract
  • Surgical question: Can I see and define the GPi accurately on the patient's MRI?
  • Clinical emphasis: Dyskinesia, Dystonia, PD motor symptoms
  • VIM / DRT
  • Pathway-based target
  • Thalamus
  • VIM
  • DRT
  • Red Nucleus
  • SCP
  • Dentate (Cerebellum)
  • Surgical question: Am I targeting a nucleus – or the tremor pathway?
  • Clinical emphasis: Tremor, tremor-dominant phenotypes
  • GPi = Anatomical target | VIM / DRT = Anatomical + Pathway problem
