Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a treatment option at Apollo Multispecialty Hospitals for conditions that impair neuron function. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used in Apollo to treat conditions such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, dystonia, essential tremor, and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). Prior to DBS, detailed MRI and CT (Computer Tomography) scans of the brain are performed. These scans will aid your doctor in determining where to place the DBS wires.
By implanting electrodes that produce electrical impulses inside the brain, DBS enables the regulation of aberrant impulses. Certain brain cells and molecules may be impacted by these electrical impulses, which may benefit some medical conditions. In order to achieve successful outcomes with Deep Brain Stimulation, neurologists and neurosurgeons work closely together at Apollo Multispecialty Hospitals. This is owing to the interdisciplinary activities carried out at the Apollo Hospitals. To accurately and securely choose the best candidate for DBS, it is carried out in a properly equipped clinic setting. This operation has the advantage of reducing the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (Progressive Disorder). Dr Aditya Choudhary, Dr Amitabha Ghosh, and Dr Debabrata Chakraborty are the neurosurgeons at Apollo Multispecialty Hospitals.
