Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery (DBS)

According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical procedure used to treat a variety of disabling neurological symptoms—most commonly the debilitating symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD). At present, the procedure is used only for patients whose symptoms cannot be adequately controlled with medications.
