Supplementary Material for DBS Planning Software Comparison

figshare admin karger published supplementary material for a study comparing deep brain stimulation target coordinates generated by three planning stations. The material includes PNG files totaling 402.1 KB, based on planning data from 10 subjects and 6 users across three coordinate spaces. It was last updated on 2026-04 -20.

Use Cases

• Compare coordinate generation variability across different neurosurgical planning stations based on the described study.
• Analyze the impact of different imaging spaces (native T2, AC-PC, stereotactic frame) on target planning based on the results.
• Assess inter-rater and inter-subject consistency in DBS planning based on the study's analysis.
• Support methodological reviews of neurosurgical software for consistent coordinate derivation.

Strengths

• Data is derived from a structured study with 10 subjects and 6 users, generating 3240 datapoints.
• Results include specific mean coordinate differences (e.g., 0.33mm in Z-plane) and variance metrics (1.5mm).
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• The dataset consists of PNG files (402.1 KB), which likely contain figures or charts rather than the raw underlying data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, limiting direct analysis of the primary data.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
