PROJECT NARRATIVE Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established treatment for advanced Parkinson's disease, but many patients receive inadequate symptom control. Current steering with directional leads has shown great potential to improve DBS efficacy by targeting diseased brain regions and avoiding off-target effects; however, current steering widens the parameter space, adding significant complexity to post-operative DBS programming. We propose the development of CranialProgrammer, an intuitive, image-guided tool for 2D/3D mapping of disease-related neural signals over patient and device data for more efficient and effective programming of directional leads.
