- Original description
To measure the electric fields induced by DBS (deep brain stimulation) on the scalp and to improve electric field simulations, the investigators will measure EEG (electroencephalography) measurements with high sampling rates (>100 kHz). The investigators hypothesize that we can improve electric field simulations of DBS by validating and calibrating the simulations based on EEG measurements at high sampling rates (>100 kHz).Read full original descriptionShow less

Inclusion: Provision of written informed consent by the patient; Age 35 - 85; patient groups: Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia; >3 months after surgery for DBS.
Exclusion: none.
