Electroencephalography (EEG) and deep brain stimulation (DBS), as specific instrument and tool, respectively, for reading and changing the electrical activities of the human brain, are milestones in the history of neuroscience and brain research. Although scientists have gone very far in exploring the brain, the mechanisms of many neurological diseases and therapies are not clear yet. Therefore, an...
Due to the increasing number of both implantation and removal of the helical nervous electrodes, the safety and the reliability of the electrode becomes an important issue in its clinical application-particularly its fatigue failure caused by body movement. Utilizing fatigue testing, we evaluated the weak points of the helical electrode. Our data analysis for fatigue cycles recorded by the fatigue...
Although deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy has been achieved, fine tuning on the operational parameters and the equipment are needed in order to make the stimulation treatment more applicable. Thus, the purpose of this study is to design and produce a deep brain stimulation device for DBS experiments for small animals (e.g. rats). Physical size, durability, cost of device and convenience of operation...
Reliability of a deep brain stimulator is very important. In this paper, the reliability performance of the extension and lead of a deep brain stimulator was evaluated based on an accelerated flexing test, and through a weakness detection, segment level improvement and assembly level improvement procedure, failure frequency was reduced and bending count till failure values got significant increased...
