Lecture
This lecture covers the principles and programming of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for neurological disorders. It discusses the general aspects, computational methods, and closed-loop DBS. The instructor explains the invasive procedures, imaging techniques, and the negative feedback model of the basal ganglia. The lecture also delves into the effects of DBS on Parkinson's disease and dystonia, emphasizing the therapeutic window and pulse width adjustments. Furthermore, it explores the testing of electrodes, monopolar review, and the workflow for programming DBS. The session concludes with insights on altering pulse width to widen the therapeutic window and the challenges in electrode placement.
