Automated assessment of symptom severity changes during deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy for Parkinson's disease.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is currently being used as a treatment for symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Tracking symptom severity progression and deciding the optimal stimulation parameters for people with PD is extremely difficult. This study ...

Robot-assisted procedures in pediatric neurosurgery.

Neurosurgical focus
OBJECTIVE During the last 3 decades, robotic technology has rapidly spread across several surgical fields due to the continuous evolution of its versatility, stability, dexterity, and haptic properties. Neurosurgery pioneered the development of robot...

A robo-pigeon based on an innovative multi-mode telestimulation system.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
In this paper, we describe a new multi-mode telestimulation system for brain-microstimulation for the navigation of a robo-pigeon, a new type of bio-robot based on Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) techniques. The multi-mode telestimulation system overc...

Towards an expert system for accurate diagnosis and progress monitoring of Parkinson's disease.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology
While Parkinson's disease is a chronic and progressive movement disorder, no one can predict which symptoms will affect an individual patient. At the present time there is no cure for Parkinson's disease but instead a variety of alternative treatment...

In vivo measurement of the frame-based application accuracy of the Neuromate neurosurgical robot.

Journal of neurosurgery
OBJECT: The application accuracy of the Neuromate neurosurgical robot has been validated in vitro but has not been evaluated in vivo for deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrode implantations. The authors conducted a study to evaluate this application ...
