2. Deep brain stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_brain_stimulation

   However, these effects may be temporary and related to (1) incorrect placement of electrodes, (2) open-loop VS closed-loop stimulation, meaning a constant stimulation or an A.I. monitoring delivery system [80] and (3) calibration of the stimulator, so these side effects are potentially reversible.

3. Adaptive deep brain stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Adaptive_Deep_Brain_Stimulation

   Keeping in view this unwanted side effect of DBS, concepts that have the capability to sense brain activity and automatically adjust the stimulation in response to fluctuating biomarkers, were re-introduced by multiple teams, with a first peer-reviewed publication in modern times by the teams of Hagai Bergman (in primates) [8] and Peter Brown ...

4. Neurostimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurostimulation

   Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has shown benefits for movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease, tremor and dystonia and other neuropsychiatric disorders such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette syndrome, chronic pain and cluster headache. DBS can directly change the brain activity in a controlled manner and is hence used ...

   What did is a procedure called "deep brain stimulation." It all starts in O'Brien's head. "There are two very small wires that go into the brain through the skull," said Dr. Sepehr Sani, a ...

6. Transcranial direct-current stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_direct...

   There was a brief rise of interest in transcranial direct current stimulation in the 1960s when studies by researcher D. J. Albert proved that the stimulation could affect brain function by changing the cortical excitability. [40] He also discovered that positive and negative stimulation had different effects on the cortical excitability. [41]

7. Transcranial magnetic stimulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_magnetic...

   Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive neurotherapy, a form of brain stimulation in which a changing magnetic field is used to induce an electric current at a specific area of the brain through electromagnetic induction. An electric pulse generator, or stimulator, is connected to a magnetic coil connected to the scalp. The ...

8. Ablative brain surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablative_brain_surgery

   Deep brain stimulation is a surgical treatment involving the implantation of a neurostimulator medical device, sometimes called a 'brain pacemaker', which sends electrical impulses to specific parts of the brain. Generally, deep brain stimulation surgery is considered preferable to ablation because it has the same effect and is adjustable and ...

   These options may include resective or laser surgeries and implantable neuromodulation devices such as a vagal nerve stimulator, deep brain stimulator, or responsive nerve stimulator.
