Proud of our CU ATMD team for their pioneering work on adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) for Parkinson’s disease—an innovative advancement that delivers personalized electrical pulses to targeted brain regions, significantly reducing symptoms like tremors and stiffness.
A @UChealth patient is the first in the nation to receive adaptive deep brain stimulation for her Parkinson's disease! This technology results from research conducted at our Clinical Translational Research Center (CTRC). .@CUNSGY, @CUMedicalSchool
