Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A model for the effect of electrical stimulation in a patient's brain. The red volume represents the brain volume that will become activated under the specific electrical stimuli that is being considered. A stimulation of the gray area is expected to result in the most desired outcomes. Therefore, the greater the overlap between the red and gray volumes, the better. In our illustration, the stimulation setup that activates the brain tissue inside the gray zone (B) is preferred to the stimulation setup that is activating brain tissue mostly outside the gray zone (A). Image (C) shows the many variables that affect the stimulation results. Imagine how hard it is to decide on the values that will relieve the patient's symptoms without any guidance.
