Nexstim's non-invasive brain mapping featured on TV in "Health Heroes"

In this clip, Dr. Mitchel Berger, Professor & Chair, Department of Neurosurgery, UCSF, San Francisco, USA , says: "In my opinion it's a breakthrough for all of us, not just in surgery but to the neurological clinical sciences as well." "What makes this so special is the ability for it to define very very small, precise cortical regions on the surface of the brain, and define individual components of function which is something we never could do before." This video is an excerpt from the documentary series "Health Heroes: Exploring Neuroscience on the Discovery Channel". First aired on January 17, 2013 the episode focused on the revolutionary advances being made in neuroscience. Nexstim's Navigated Brain Stimulation technology, which uses MRI-guided transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), is featured because it enables painless, non-invasive functional mapping of the brain prior to surgery. Non-invasive NexSpeech® now also allows accurate and reliable mapping of speech areas of the brain for the first time. Pediatric neurosurgeons are leading the adoption of the Nexstim NBS System because its patient-friendly features make it easy to use with children. In the USA, the NBS System and NexSpeech® are cleared by the FDA for use in pre-surgical planning for patients undergoing brain surgery. The NBS System is available from Nexstim Oy, Helsinki, Finland. http://www.nexstim.com/ #ntms #neurosurgery #healthheroes #tumor #brainmapping ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To learn more about the use of nTMS in neurosurgery, visit: https://nexstim-ntms.com/43byBjE Stay up-to-date on the use of nTMS in neurosurgery by subscribing to our email updates: https://nexstim-ntms.com/3KevDSr To meet us live and in person, check out our upcoming event schedule: https://nexstim-ntms.com/3nQTctm If you are interested in a live demonstration of nTMS, please contact us: [email protected] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INDICATIONS FOR USE NBS (FDA K112881): The Nexstim Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) System 5 is indicated for non-invasive mapping of the primary motor cortex of the brain to its cortical gyrus. The Nexstim NBS System 5 provides information that may be used in the assessment of the primary motor cortex for pre-procedural planning. The Nexstim NBS System 5 is not intended to be used during a surgical procedure. The Nexstim NBS System 5 is intended to be used by trained clinical professionals. Nexstim NexSpeech®, when used together with the NBS System 5, is indicated for non-invasive localization of cortical areas that do not contain essential speech function. NexSpeech® provides information that may be used in pre-surgical planning in patients undergoing brain surgery. Intra-operatively, the localization information provided by NexSpeech® is intended to be verified by direct cortical stimulation. The Nexstim NBS System 5 with NexSpeech® is not intended to be used during a surgical procedure. The Nexstim NBS System 5 with NexSpeech® is intended to be used by trained clinical professionals.
