Abstract:
A site-specific deep brain stimulation for enhancement of memory is described. A method of the site-specific deep brain stimulation for enhancement of memory may include implanting intracranial depth electrodes in a patient, wherein the electrodes are placed in right and/or left entorhinal regions, and stimulating the electrodes with current set below an after-discharge threshold. The method may include stimulation at a specific brain site in the medial temporal lobe, stimulation (ODTS) at specific stages of information processing. A system for site specific deep brain stimulation of entorhinal regions during specific stages of information processing is also described.
