Technique and Accuracy of 3D Fluoroscopy-Confirmed Asleep Deep Brain Stimulator Implantation: A Case Series
Asleep DBS lead implantation using a Leksell stereotactic frame and intraoperative C-ARM 3DF achieves localization accuracy comparable with established awake and asleep methods. This technique is efficient and may be a viable alternative in centers with access to 3D fluoroscopic imaging.
