Figure 5. Intraoperative kinesthetic responses were computed in three-dimensional (3D) coordinates along trajectories and then mapped to points on the closest axial Morel Atlas section. These responses were computed during deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting for ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM), the globus pallidus interna (GPi), and the subthalamic nucleus (STN) regions. Six of twenty-six atlas sections are displayed with the highest density of kinesthetic points acquired during VIM (A), GPi (B, C), and STN (D, E, F) targeting. Lower extremity responses are red and upper extremity responses are blue. In total, these compute to 1336 upper extremity kinesthetics, and 990 lower extremity kinesthetics.

VIM = Ventral Intermediate Nucleus of the Thalamus (A)

GPi = Globus Pallidus Interna (B, C)

STN = Subthalamic Nucleus (D, E, F)

3D = Three Dimensional
