Abstract
Objective: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) systems have historically used ring-shaped electrodes that produce stimulation fields with limited control over field shape and volume of tissue activated. Directional current steering may permit a more personalized DBS approach with respect to individualized shape and pattern of electrical field and corresponding volume of tissue activated. In this report, initial real-world outcomes using a directional lead with a DBS system capable of multiple independent current source control (MICC) for use in managing symptoms of levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease (PD) are reported.
