Original lecture slide 16 showing the DBS lead insertion and fixation sequence

LEAD INSERTION & FIXATION

  • Trajectory precision must survive every mechanical step
  • 1 BURR HOLE — Skull entry
  • 2 GUIDE — Cannula / stylet
  • 3 MICROELECTRODE — Physiology
  • 4 DBS LEAD — Final contacts
  • 5 FIXATION — Lock position
  • DBS LEAD
  • contacts
  • Small mechanical errors can become clinically meaningful millimetres.
  • DBS implantation workflow; device-specific anchoring systems vary.
