Investigation of a Deep Brain Stimulator (DBS) System
A deep brain stimulator (DBS) device is a surgically implanted system that delivers electrical impulses to specific targets in the brain to treat abnormal movement disorders. A DBS is like a cardiac pacemaker, but instead of sending electrical signals to the heart, it sends them to the brain instead.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) in resistant mental disorders [PDF]
Abstract Introduction: Deep Brain Stimulation can directly alter brain activity in a controlled manner and the effect is reversible. The mechanism is that the electrode acts locally on neural activity, which is transferred to monosynchronous and multisynaptic network connections ...

Safety Study of Combination Treatment: Deep Brain Stimulation and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD) often receive deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment, in which conductive leads are surgically implanted in the brain. While DBS treats tremor and rigidity, patients often continue to suffer from speech and

No effect of subthalamic deep brain stimulation on metacognition in Parkinson’s disease
Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) is a powerful treatment in Parkinson’s disease (PD), which provides a positive effect on motor symptoms although the way it operates on high cognitive processes such as metacognition remains ...

Neurosurgery for psychopaths? The problems of empathy and neurodiversity [PDF]
I argue that deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a bad approach for incarcerated psychopaths for two reasons. First, given what we know about psychopathy, empathy, and DBS, it is unlikely to function as an effective treatment for the moral problems that ...

MEG can map short and long-term changes in brain activity following deep brain stimulation for chronic pain. [PDF]
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been shown to be clinically effective for some forms of treatment-resistant chronic pain, but the precise mechanisms of action are not well understood.

Post-operative deep brain stimulation assessment: Automatic data integration and report generation. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The gold standard for post-operative deep brain stimulation (DBS) parameter tuning is a monopolar review of all stimulation contacts, a strategy being challenged by recent developments of more complex electrode leads.
