- Abstract
Recent research has identified the cerebellum as a potential target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in movement disorders such as dystonia and tremor. This article presents two cases where intermittent ultralow-frequency low-amplitude deep cerebellar stimulation was used to treat dystonia. The optimal electrical stimulation parameters were determined through trial and error, with low-frequency stimulation (2 Hz) found to be the most effective. The study suggests that low-amplitude stimulation may be more effective at 2 Hz and highlights the need for further research in this area.
