The Place of Local Field Potentials in Deep Brain Stimulation Programming for Parkinson’s Disease: A Review by Chun Him Shelton Leung, Hugh D. Simpson, Dominic Thyagarajan

“…Results: Analyzing LFPs clearly has the potential to assist or streamline DBS programming in clinical practice, but there are knowledge gaps and challenges to overcome, especially in the utilization of intraoperative LFPs. Conclusions: More research is required to compare different algorithms that utilize LFPs in DBS programming to identify a simple, practical and time-saving algorithm incorporating reliable LFP biomarkers that will enhance the DBS programming experience for both patients and clinicians.…”
