Summary: The invention by French neurosurgeon and physicist Benabid is a novel treatment approach to neurological conditions, known as high-frequency deep brain stimulation (DBS). DBS relies on a surgical procedure during which doctors insert a high-frequency electrical probe into the patient's brain - worn permanently like a pace maker - which can then be used to administer electrical charges at controlled intensities of 130 HZ to targeted regions of the thalamus and surrounding areas.
