Navigated Brain Neurosurgery starts here
Open the catalog to page 1Noninvasive, direct cortical mapping Neurosurgery starts with planning. Direct cortical stimulation of the cortex following craniotomy has been the “gold standard” for motor mapping, but invasiveness severely limits options for planning or discussing treatment options with patients. Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) is a revolutionary technique which is intuitive and accurate, yet noninvasive. NBS is the beginning of a change in the paradigm of neurosurgery. Neurosurgery starts here. Plan with confidence In surgical treatment for brain tumors, there is increasing evidence that an aggressive resection...
Open the catalog to page 2Upload a standard MRI and the NBS System computes a detailed 3D rendering of the head and intracranial structures. Peeling layer-by-layer you can view the brain at any desired intracranial depth. Overlay fMRI, DTI or PET data on the 3D rendering for a complete picture. Place surface electrodes over the desired muscles. The 6-channel EMG module automatically calculates and records all MEP amplitudes and latencies. Export images in DICOM to planning systems or direct to the neuronavigator. In the OR, NBS cortical maps help optimal placement of DCS electrodes and facilitate surgical guidance. With...
