Author(s): Preksha P. Saparia*
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has developed during the past 20 years as a remarkable treatment option for several different disorders. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has provided remarkable benefits for people with a variety of neurologic conditions. The clinical use of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is among the most important advances in the clinical neurosciences in the past two decades. As a surgical tool, DBS can directly measure pathological brain activity and can deliver adjustable stimulation for therapeutic effect in neurological and psychiatric disorders correlated with dysfunctional circuitry. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a surgery to implant a device that sends electrical signals to brain areas responsible for body movement. Electrodes are placed deep in the brain and are connected to a stimulator device. Similar to a heart pacemaker, a neurostimulator uses electric pulses t.. Read More»
