IBS Hospital offers Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for conditions like Parkinson's disease, dystonia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, essential tremors, etc. The surgery is carried out in two parts, brain surgery, and chest surgery. Some of the diagnostic tests performed before a Deep Brain Stimulation at IBS Hospital include brain-imaging studies, such as a CT, or MRI before the surgery. The diagnostic tests guide the surgeons to map the areas of the brain and implant the electrodes at the right location.

DBS surgery at IBS Hospital is divided into two parts: brain surgery and chest surgery. The surgical team first secures the patient's head on a special head frame before using neuroimaging (CT or brain MRI) to map the brain and pinpoint the precise location of the electrodes. Typically, the electrodes are placed while the patient is alert and awake. In the second part of the surgery, the surgeon will implant the part of the device that contains the batteries (pulse generator) under the skin in the patient's chest, near the collarbone. Dr. Sanjeev Kumar, Dr. Vikas Gupta, and Dr. Swatantra Mishra are some of the faces of the neurology department at Sarvodaya Hospital and Research Centre.
