Technological innovations in DBS
Innovations related to electrodes and pacemakers (IPG) The most important factor in the success of brain pacemaker treatment is the precise placement of the electrodes in the target nucleus in the brain, usually an area responsible for motor function in the subthalamic nucleus (STN- SUBTHALAMIC NUCLEUS). Ideally, the electric field created around the implanted electrode only affects structures involved in Parkinson's disease and it is possible to improve without side effects the […]
