内容简介
This book presents the latest research by leading researchers on different aspects of the organization and function of the basal ganglia and its output nuclei projections to the thalamus. The major diseases associated with dysfunction of the basal ganglia are Parkinson's, Huntington's, dystonia (abnormal fixed posture with spasms), tremor, and drug-induced dyskinesias. Chapters address both basic sciences, such as the physiology and molecular signaling aspects, and clinical applications, such as lesions and stimulation of the thalamic area of the brain.
