Thank you for providing such an explanation of brain stimulation (DBS) and its applications, in treating different neurological and psychiatric disorders. The article does a job of outlining the mechanics behind DBS from implanting electrodes to utilizing impulse generators for stimulation. I found the information, on the Percept PC device and its adaptive features quite enlightening showcasing how it can tailor treatments to needs and enhance results. This detailed summary really sheds light on the progress and advantages of DBS technology.
