Toward a closed-loop deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease using local field potential in parkinsonian rat model.

Unlabelled: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an invasive method used for treating Parkinson's disease in its advanced stages. Nowadays, the initial adjustment of DBS parameters and their automatic matching proportion to the progression of the disease is viewed as one of the research areas discussed by the researchers, which is called closed-loop DBS. Various studies were conducted regarding finding the signal(s) which reflects different symptoms of the disease.
