    How sample size impacts probabilistic stimulation maps in deep brain stimulation
    (MDPI, 03.05.2023) Nordin, Teresa; Blomstedt, Patric; Hemm-Ode, Simone; Wårdell, Karin [in: Brain Sciences]
    Probabilistic stimulation maps of deep brain stimulation (DBS) effect based on voxel-wise statistics (p-maps) have increased in literature over the last decade. These p-maps require correction for Type-1 errors due to multiple testing based on the same data. Some analyses do not reach overall significance, and this study aims to evaluate the impact of sample size on p-map computation. A dataset of 61 essential tremor patients treated with DBS was used for the investigation. Each patient contributed with four stimulation settings, one for each contact. From the dataset, 5 to 61 patients were randomly sampled with replacement for computation of p-maps and extraction of high- and low-improvement volumes. For each sample size, the process was iterated 20 times with new samples generating in total 1140 maps. The overall p-value corrected for multiple comparisons, significance volumes, and dice coefficients (DC) of the volumes within each sample size were evaluated. With less than 30 patients (120 simulations) in the sample, the variation in overall significance was larger and the median significance volumes increased with sample size. Above 120 simulations, the trends stabilize but present some variations in cluster location, with a highest median DC of 0.73 for n = 57. The variation in location was mainly related to the region between the high- and low-improvement clusters. In conclusion, p-maps created with small sample sizes should be evaluated with caution, and above 120 simulations in single-center studies are probably required for stable results.

    An online movement and tremor identification algorithm for evaluation during deep brain stimulation
    (De Gruyter, 02.09.2022) Bourgeois, Frédéric; Pambakian, Nicola; Coste, Jérôme; Lange, Ijsbrand de; Lemaire, Jean-Jacques; Hemm-Ode, Simone [in: Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering]
    INTRODUCTION: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is widely used to alleviate symptoms of movement disorders. During intraoperative stimulation the influence of active or passive movements on the neuronal activity is often evaluated but the evaluation remains mostly subjective. The objective of this paper is to investigate the potential of a previously developed Weighted-frequency Fourier Linear combiner and Kalman filter-based recursive algorithm to identify tremor phases and types. METHODS: Ten accelerometer recordings from eight patients were acquired during DBS from which 186 phases were manually annotated into: rest, postural and kinetic phase without tremor, and rest, postural and kinetic phase with tremor. The method first estimates the instantaneous tremor frequency and then decomposes the motion signal into voluntary and tremorous parts. The tremorous part is used to quantify tremor and the voluntary part to differentiate rest, postural and kinetic phases. RESULTS: Instantaneous tremor frequency and amplitude are successfully tracked online. The overall accuracy for tremorous phases only is 89.1% and 76.3% when also non-tremorous phases are considered. Two main misclassification cases are identified and further discussed. CONCLUSION: The results demonstrate the potential of the developed algorithm as an online tremorous movement classifier. It would benefit from a more advanced tremor detector but nevertheless the obtained digital biomarkers offer an evidence-based analysis and could optimize the efficacy of DBS treatment.

    Heading direction is significantly biased by preceding whole-body roll-orientation while lying
    (Frontiers, 18.04.2022) Tarnutzer, Alexander Andrea; Duarte da Costa, Vasco; Baumann, Denise; Hemm-Ode, Simone [in: Frontiers in Neurology]
    Background: After a prolonged static whole-body roll-tilt, a significant bias of the internal estimates of the direction of gravity has been observed when assessing the subjective visual vertical. Objective: We hypothesized that this post-tilt bias represents a more general phenomenon, broadly affecting spatial orientation and navigation. Specifically, we predicted that after the prolonged roll-tilt to either side perceived straight-ahead would also be biased. Methods: Twenty-five healthy participants were asked to rest in three different lying positions (supine, right-ear-down, and left-ear-down) for 5 min (“adaptation period”) prior to walking straight-ahead blindfolded for 2 min. Walking was recorded with the inertial measurement unit sensors attached to different body locations and with sensor shoe insoles. The raw data was segmented with a gait–event detection method. The Heading direction was determined and linear mixed-effects models were used for statistical analyses. Results: A significant bias in heading into the direction of the previous roll-tilt position was observed in the post-adaptation trials. This bias was identified in both measurement systems and decreased again over the 2-min walking period. Conclusions: The bias observed further confirms the influence of prior knowledge on spatial orientation and navigation. Specifically, it underlines the broad impact of a shifting internal estimate of direction of gravity over a range of distinct paradigms, illustrating similar decay time constants. In the broader context, the observed bias in perceived straight-ahead emphasizes that getting up in the morning after a good night's sleep is a vulnerable period, with an increased risk of falls and fall-related injuries due to non-availability of optimally tuned internal estimates of the direction of gravity and the direction of straight-ahead.

    Deep brain stimulation: emerging tools for simulation, data analysis, and visualization
    (Frontiers, 11.04.2022) Wårdell, Karin; Nordin, Teresa; Zsigmond, Peter; Westin, Carl-Fredrik; Hariz, Marwan; Vogel, Dorian; Hemm-Ode, Simone [in: Frontiers in Neuroscience]
    Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a well-established neurosurgical procedure for movement disorders that is also being explored for treatment-resistant psychiatric conditions. This review highlights important consideration for DBS simulation and data analysis. The literature on DBS has expanded considerably in recent years, and this article aims to identify important trends in the field. During DBS planning, surgery, and follow up sessions, several large data sets are created for each patient, and it becomes clear that any group analysis of such data is a big data analysis problem and has to be handled with care. The aim of this review is to provide an update and overview from a neuroengineering perspective of the current DBS techniques, technical aids, and emerging tools with the focus on patient-specific electric field (EF) simulations, group analysis, and visualization in the DBS domain. Examples are given from the state-of-the-art literature including our own research. This work reviews different analysis methods for EF simulations, tractography, deep brain anatomical templates, and group analysis. Our analysis highlights that group analysis in DBS is a complex multi-level problem and selected parameters will highly influence the result. DBS analysis can only provide clinically relevant information if the EF simulations, tractography results, and derived brain atlases are based on as much patient-specific data as possible. A trend in DBS research is creation of more advanced and intuitive visualization of the complex analysis results suitable for the clinical environment.

    Probabilistic maps for deep brain stimulation – Impact of methodological differences
    (Elsevier, 2022) Nordin, Teresa; Vogel, Dorian; Osterlund, Erik; Johansson, Johannes; Fytagoridis, Anders; Blomstedt, Patric; Hemm-Ode, Simone; Wardell, Karin [in: Brain Stimulation]
    Background Group analysis of patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS) has the potential to help understand and optimize the treatment of patients with movement disorders. Probabilistic stimulation maps (PSM) are commonly used to analyze the correlation between tissue stimulation and symptomatic effect but are applied with different methodological variations. Objective To compute a group-specific MRI template and PSMs for investigating the impact of PSM model parameters. Methods Improvement and occurrence of dizziness in 68 essential tremor patients implanted in caudal zona incerta were analyzed. The input data includes the best parameters for each electrode contact (screening), and the clinically used settings. Patient-specific electric field simulations (n = 488) were computed for all DBS settings. The electric fields were transformed to a group-specific MRI template for analysis and visualization. The different comparisons were based on PSMs representing occurrence (N-map), mean improvement (M-map), weighted mean improvement (wM-map), and voxel-wise t-statistics (p-map). These maps were used to investigate the impact from input data (clinical/screening settings), clustering methods, sampling resolution, and weighting function. Results Screening or clinical settings showed the largest impacts on the PSMs. The average differences of wM-maps were 12.4 and 18.2% points for the left and right sides respectively. Extracting clusters based on wM-map or p-map showed notable variation in volumes, while positioning was similar. The impact on the PSMs was small from weighting functions, except for a clear shift in the positioning of the wM-map clusters. Conclusion The distribution of the input data and the clustering method are most important to consider when creating PSMs for studying the relationship between anatomy and DBS outcome.

    Towards tracking of deep brain stimulation electrodes using an integrated magnetometer
    (MDPI, 10.04.2021) Quirin, Thomas; Féry, Corentin; Vogel, Dorian; Vergne, Céline; Sarracanie, Mathieu; Salameh, Najat; Madec, Morgan; Hemm-Ode, Simone; Hebrard, Luc; Pascal, Joris [in: Sensors]
    This paper presents a tracking system using magnetometers, possibly integrable in a deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrode. DBS is a treatment for movement disorders where the position of the implant is of prime importance. Positioning challenges during the surgery could be addressed thanks to a magnetic tracking. The system proposed in this paper, complementary to existing procedures, has been designed to bridge preoperative clinical imaging with DBS surgery, allowing the surgeon to increase his/her control on the implantation trajectory. Here the magnetic source required for tracking consists of three coils, and is experimentally mapped. This mapping has been performed with an in-house three-dimensional magnetic camera. The system demonstrates how magnetometers integrated directly at the tip of a DBS electrode, might improve treatment by monitoring the position during and after the surgery. The three-dimensional operation without line of sight has been demonstrated using a reference obtained with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a simplified brain model. We observed experimentally a mean absolute error of 1.35 mm and an Euclidean error of 3.07 mm. Several areas of improvement to target errors below 1 mm are also discussed.

    Erratum to “Lamb waves and adaptive beamforming for aberration correction in medical ultrasound imaging”
    (IEEE, 02/2021) Mozaffarzadeh, Moein; Minonzio, Claudio; De jong, Nico; Verweij, Martin; Hemm-Ode, Simone; Renaud, Guillaume; Daeichin, Verya [in: IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control]
    In the above article [1] , we mentioned that the superposition of the different symmetric (S) modes in the frequency wavenumber (f-k) domain results in a high-intensity region where its slope corresponds to the longitudinal wave speed in the slab. However, we have recently understood that this high intensity region belongs to the propagation of a wave called lateral wave or head wave [2] – [5] . It is generated if the longitudinal sound speed of the aberrator (i.e., the PVC slab) is larger than that of water and if the incident wavefront is curved. When the incidence angle at the interface between water and PVC is near the critical angle, the refracted wave in PVC reradiates a small part of its energy into the fluid (i.e., the head wave). As discussed in [4] , if the thickness of the waveguide is larger than the wavelength, the first arriving signal is the head wave. This is also the case in our study [1] where the ultrasound wavelength of a compressional wave in PVC was close to 1 mm, and a PVC slab with a thickness of 8 mm was used.

    Lamb waves and adaptive beamforming for aberration correction in medical ultrasound imaging
    (IEEE, 06.07.2020) Mozaffarzadeh, Moein; Minonzio, Claudio; de Jong, Nico; Verweij, Martin; Hemm-Ode, Simone; Daeichin, Verya [in: IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control]
    Phase aberration in transcranial ultrasound imaging (TUI) caused by the human skull leads to an inaccurate image reconstruction. In this article, we present a novel method for estimating the speed of sound and an adaptive beamforming technique for phase aberration correction in a flat polyvinylchloride (PVC) slab as a model for the human skull. First, the speed of sound of the PVC slab is found by extracting the overlapping quasi-longitudinal wave velocities of symmetrical Lamb waves in the frequency-wavenumber domain. Then, the thickness of the plate is determined by the echoes from its front and back side. Next, an adaptive beamforming method is developed, utilizing the measured sound speed map of the imaging medium. Finally, to minimize reverberation artifacts caused by strong scatterers (i.e., needles), a dual probe setup is proposed. In this setup, we image the medium from two opposite directions, and the final image can be the minimum intensity projection of the inherently co-registered images of the opposed probes. Our results confirm that the Lamb wave method estimates the longitudinal speed of the slab with an error of 3.5% and is independent of its shear wave speed. Benefiting from the acquired sound speed map, our adaptive beamformer reduces (in real time) a mislocation error of 3.1, caused by an 8 mm slab, to 0.1 mm. Finally, the dual probe configuration shows 7 dB improvement in removing reverberation artifacts of the needle, at the cost of only 2.4-dB contrast loss. The proposed image formation method can be used, e.g., to monitor deep brain stimulation procedures and localization of the electrode(s) deep inside the brain from two temporal bones on the sides of the human skull.
