On this latter regard, there is still a shortage of studies which investigated basal ganglia (BG) alterations and their role ... studies on BG, including thalamus; (c) studies using structural and ...

Objectives To measure iron accumulation in the basal ganglia in Huntington's disease (HD) using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM), and to ascertain its relevance in terms of clinical and ...

They are generally treated with drugs that target the prefrontal cortex, but our findings suggest that we should be testing whether drugs that target the basal ganglia and thalamus help to improve ...

Our aims for the current study were twofold. Firstly, we investigated whether β bursts in subcortical regions of basal ganglia-thalamic inhibitory pathways are associated with movement cancellation.

The striatum and the subthalamic nucleus (STN) constitute the input stage of the basal ganglia (BG) network and together innervate BG downstream structures using GABA and glutamate, respectively.

All remaining analyses were performed on these Fisher z-transformed correlation maps. Analysis 1: Thalamic Connectivity with the Basal Ganglia Relates to Spatial Span Working Memory Performance In our ...
