"For the last 8 years this group has produced radiofrequency lesions in pallidal and thalamic targets to alleviate the symptoms of parkinsonism. In earlier papers we described the stereotaxic surgical technique and an objective method of evaluating clinical results based on the rating by a panel of judges of sequential sound-color motion pictures. This report includes more extensive data and allows definitive conclusions on therapeutic results. The degree of clinical improvement has also been compared with the threshold current required to produce or augment tremor during pre-lesion electrical stimulation of therapeutic targets."
