Abstract: A bilateral deep brain stimulator for insertion into a brain, the brain having two hemispheres, comprising: a first shaft having a first plurality of electrodes arranged thereon, the first shaft inserted into one hemisphere of the brain; a first plurality of depth graduated bands disposed on the first shaft above the first plurality of electrodes; a second shaft having a second plurality of electrodes arranged thereon, the second shaft inserted into the other hemisphere of the brain; a second plurality of depth graduated bands disposed on the second shaft above the second plurality of electrodes; a pulse generator; a first line electrically connecting the pulse generator to the first shaft; a second line electrically connecting the pulse generator to the second shaft.

Abstract: An electrical stimulator line protector, comprising a case having an upper surface and a lower surface, the case configured for implantation in the scalp or other subcutaneous areas of a patient; a storage slot disposed between the upper surface and the lower surface of the case, the slot configured to allow at least one electrical line to coil therearound, the upper surface, the lower surface and the slot to thereby shield the line.

Abstract: An apparatus and related methods for a deployable deep brain stimulating probe with multiple, extendable tendrils capable of independently deploying from openings within the shaft of the probe into surrounding tissue. An electrode is disposed on at least one of the tendrils for treatment of deep brain tissue.
