NeuroNav™

 

 
         
 
NeuroNav Overview

The NeuroNav-S is an intraoperative microelectrode recording (MER) system used in the localization of surgical targets for the implantation of Deep Brain Stimulators (DBS) or ablation of target structures in Movement Disorders treatment procedures. 

Mapping brain structures is accomplished by advancing a microelectrode (NeuroProbe) into the brain and registering the action potentials generated from various neurons in the brain.
   
     
     
  Main Benefits

Reduce Microelectrode Recording time in the Operating Room

  • Easy-to-use software controls with an option for remote control from the sterile field

  • Online Pattern Recognition Algorithm (OPRA), highlights areas of high neural activity
  • Reposition the electrodes without adjusting the stereotactic system using XY stage and/or five hole bengun system
  • Quiet motor, allow you to record while the electrode is moving

Achieve Better Clinical Results

  • Instantly switch from recording to stimulation at any point during the recording

  • Safe and Accurate placement, DBS implanted in a single step without zeroing or disassembling the drive

Simplify the Operation Procedure

  • Trajectory Map Construction

  • Control all aspects of the system from the sterile field
  • Portable system with few components and attachments
 
 
   
   
   
   
 

NeuroNav Headstage

  • Streamline Connections : only ONE cable crosses the sterile field .

  • Manual Override: if necessary, the drive can be controlled using the manual knob

  • Reliable Accuracy: The software constantly monitors the accuracy of the drive movement using two separate electronic feedback systems

  • Small and Lightweight: The headstage is compatible with most stereotactic systems including frameless

 

    Micro and Macro Stimulation
  • Microstimulation of the electrode tip to condition the electrode and adjust the impedance

  • MacroStimulation of the tissue around the electrode tip to mimic DBS effect or to rule out side effects

  • Current Monitor provides accurate feedback on the actual current being delivered.

One-Step DBS Implant: Design allows for the implantation of the DBS from the same guide tube used for recording without backing up the MicroDrive
