A method for electric field simulations and acceleration measurements for intraoperative test stimulation
Abstract
Background:
Despite an increasing use of deep brain stimulation (DBS) the fundamental mechanisms underlying therapeutic and adverse effects as well as the optimal stimulation site remain largely unknown. So far no group has considered simulations of electric entities for intraoperatively obtained test stimulation data to identify the stimulated volume around intraoperative DBS electrodes. The aim of the present paper is to introduce a method allowing patient-specific electric field simulations for stimulation amplitudes at different anatomical positions and taking into account the obtained clinical results objectively evaluated by acceleration measurements [1].
