Real-time emulator for intelligent deep-brain stimulation

Image from Licence Details: Real-time emulator for intelligent deep-brain stimulation

Applications: Test advanced neuromodulation closed-loop in neuroscience research applications, including personalised treatment.

Features Benefits
  • The software and hardware emulators resourcefully utilise advanced accurate mathematical models of how patients’ physiological brain oscillations respond to electrical stimulation pulses.
  • The emulators estimate the dynamic evolution and steady-state responses of the target brain area’s local field potential (LFP) to actual electrical stimulation pulses in real-time.
  • Potential to use the emulators to reduce/refine research studies and in vivo testing requirements.
  • Allows clinicians to test clinical interventions beforehand to improve efficiency and patient safety.
  • Results obtained from the software and hardware emulators offer high potential to support regulatory submissions.
  • The software and hardware emulators can be adapted to most neurological disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, dystonia, and essential tremor.
  • Allows thorough tests for scenarios that are not easily reproducible or impossible to reproduce with animal testing.
  • Any external or implantable voltage or current neurostimulator can be connected to the hardware emulator for thorough testing and validation before patient use.
  • Offers compatibility with all existing deep brain stimulation systems.
