NCT ID NCT04712552
First seen Apr 06, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tested how accurately a robot called Neuromate, using its Neurolocate system, can target specific brain areas during deep brain stimulation surgery. Researchers compared the robot's aimed point to the actual point reached in 18 patients with Parkinson's disease, dystonia, or tremor. The goal was to see if this technology can make surgery more precise, faster, and more comfortable for patients.
