摘      要：Deep brain stimulation（DBS）is a well established electrophysiological treatment initially applied to treat medication-refractory motor symptoms in Parkinson＇s disease（PD）,and is now being explored for several neurological and psychiatric disorders.The specific physiological mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of DBS are not fully understood.
