Figure 1: Subject 1. Colorized functional MR imaging activation data displayed in yellow, orange, and red on anatomic magnetization-prepared rapid acquisition gradient-echo images displayed in transverse, coronal, and transverse planes from left to right. Only left-sided DBS was performed. Arrows point to bilateral DBS electrodes. Areas of activation were identified within left posterior globus pallidus externa (left and middle images), posterior putamen (left and middle images), left thalamus (middle image), and right cerebellum (right image).

Figure 3a: Subject 5. Colorized functional MR imaging activation data displayed in yellow, orange, and red on anatomic magnetization-prepared rapid acquisition gradient-echo images in (a, d, e) transverse and (b, c) coronal planes. (ac) Pattern of activation during right-sided DBS. Foci of activation were identified within the (a, b) ipsilateral posterior globus pallidus externa and posterior putamen with a smaller focus of activation identified in the contralateral globus pallidus externa and putamen and in the (c) contralateral cerebellum with a smaller focus of activation in the ipsilateral cerebellum. (d, e) Pattern of activation during left-sided DBS. Foci of activation were identified within (d) ipsilateral globus pallidus externa and (e) thalamus.
