Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of implantable medical devices, and relates to an impedance measurement device and method based on electrodes of a deep brain stimulator. Background technique [0002] Deep brain stimulator (Deep Brain Stimulation, DBS) is to stimulate the brain nucleus by sending out electrical pulse signals to regulate abnormal neural circuits. Due to its minimally invasive nature, DBS has become a routine surgical method for the treatment of movement disorders such as essential tremor, Parkinson's disease, and dystonia. [0003] During DBS surgery, the placement position and contact effect of stimulating electrodes will have a significant impact on the therapeutic effect of DBS. The position of the electrode and the quality of the contact effect will directly affect the stimulation effect of the discharge pulse on the nuclei, thereby affecting the treatment of the disease. In actual operation, it can be judged by detecting the con...
