Brain mapping during stereotactic procedures
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study builds a “brain atlas” by collecting information during stereotactic brain procedures. It may help doctors better plan and understand these brain procedures in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (or your legal guardian) are being recommended for a stereotactic brain procedure
- You have agreed to have a stereotactic brain procedure
- You are between ages 6 and 90 (including 6 and 90)
- You (or your legal guardian) can provide informed consent
- Your doctor does not think you are not eligible for a stereotactic brain procedure

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at brain wave activity in areas that control movement, both in people with Parkinson's disease who already have deep brain stimulation electrodes and in people with epilepsy who are undergoing brain monitoring with stereo-EEG. The goal is to understand how brain signals change during normal movement and in movement problems, which may help improve treatments.
This study looks at brain activity patterns in people with dystonia who already have a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device. By recording brain signals during MRI and other tests, researchers hope to learn how DBS helps control movement.
This study uses advanced brain imaging (7-Tesla MRI and MEG) to understand how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects brain networks in people with Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. It helps doctors learn how DBS works so they can improve treatment in the future.
This study looks at how brain and speech networks work while people with Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, or dystonia are getting deep brain stimulation (DBS). It may help doctors better understand and possibly improve speech outcomes for people receiving DBS.
This study is testing whether brain signals measured during deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help doctors better treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. It may offer a new way to personalize treatment for people with severe, treatment-resistant OCD.
This trial studies whether deep brain stimulation surgery—guided using special scans—can reduce severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) symptoms. It may help people whose OCD has not improved enough with standard medicines and therapy.
