DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-64250-7
Abstract: Vertical current steering (vCS) divides current between multiple contacts, which reduces radial spread to fine-tune the electric field shape and improves neuroanatomical targeting. vCS may improve the variable responsiveness of Parkinsonian gait to conventional deep brain… read more here.
