Invasive basal ganglia recordings in humans have significantly advanced our understanding of the neurophysiology of movement disorders. A recent technical advance has been the addition of electrocorticography to basal ganglia recording, for evaluating distributed motor networks. Here we review the rationale, results, and ethics of this multisite recording technique in movement disorders, as well as its application in chronic recording paradigms utilizing implantable neural interfaces that include a sensing function.
