Study raises MRI safety concerns for nerve implants by showing risks of unintended nerve stimulation during scans with cuff electrodes.

A University of Houston engineering professor is warning that implanted cuff electrodes – widely used in therapy for epilepsy ...

Researchers warn that implanted nerve cuff electrodes can trigger unintended nerve stimulation and pain during MRI scans.

Addressing these cases of bias is one aspect of Dr. Grover and the For All Lab’s work — accessibility being another. Current deep-brain treatments for conditions like depression, OCD, addiction, ...

Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates off-target cells and limits resolution. A new microneedle electrode design ...

In pain relief and physical rehabilitation, TENS-based therapies are widely used to support non-pharmacological treatment strategies. Reusable electrode pads enable patients to conduct multiple ...

With the introduction of adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) for Parkinson's disease, new questions emerge regarding who, why, and how to treat. This paper outlines the pathophysiological rationale ...

A team led by Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab scientists have developed a new technology that can eavesdrop on the hidden electrical dialogues unfolding inside miniature, lab-grown ...

Researchers studying obsessive-compulsive disorder have identified a specific brain signal that appears to precede the onset ...

A high-frequency brain signal in the frontal cortex is linked to OCD compulsions. Targeted deep brain stimulation rapidly reduced symptoms in severe cases.
