Abstract
⺠Deep brain stimulation is spreading from neurology to psychiatry, then addiction. ⺠The lateral hypothalamus, amygdala and lateral habenula are not very good targets. ⺠Nucleus accumbens is the current chosen target, but not necessarily a good choice. ⺠The dorsal striatum, prefrontal cortex might be better choices for addiction. ⺠We explain why the subthalamic nucleus is the right target for addiction.
