I am interested in microelectrode recordings of relevant brain
regions prior to pallidotomy for Parkinson's disease. Could you
please advise me about the technical and practical aspects of the
procedure?
Some centres doing pallidotomy do not perform microelectrode
recordings. Clearly there is a difference of opinion amongst
different centres. What does the discussion group think?
