Brain Stimulation: was first developed as a treatment for Parkinson's disease to reduce tremor, stiffness, walking problems and uncontrollable movements. In brain stimulation, a pair of electrodes is implanted in the brain and controlled by a generator that is implanted in the chest.
Deep–Brain Stimulation (DBS) has become an effective means of treating a variety of neurological conditions. Most DBS systems work are "open-loop," and apply constant stimula...
