DBS - Deep Brain Stimulation
Precise anatomic location the DBS electrodes position
DBS is an effective surgical treatment for some of the drug-refractory movement disorders. In order to improve the clinical interpretation of patients symptoms, a system was developed to precisely locate the anatomic electrodes position.
The system allows:
- To obtain the 3D location of DBS’s electrodes
- Segmentation of deep brain structures
