Preference for Minimally Invasive Procedures to Encourage Growth of Global Deep Brain Stimulation Devices Market for Parkinson’s Disease, TMR Says Since its inception about three decades ago, the fundamentals of software and hardware design for deep brain stimulation (DBS) have largely remained stagnant. However, improved understanding of disease progression pertaining to movement disorders combined with patient and clinician demands has led to the development of more advanced DBS technology. This will open growth avenues for deep brain stimulation and its allied realms, according to a research report by Transparency Market Research. While new electrode design for deep brain stimulation devices has enabled multi-target stimulation sans side-effects, new userfriendly software enables computational modelling and individualized directed programming. Q. What is the usability of DBS devices for Parkinson’s disease? A. The use of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease involves treating several disabling neurological symptoms such
