Image Guided DBS

It’s about time DBS worked with greater precision

Boston Scientific’s Image Guided DBS delivers a fully integrated workflow, combining the Vercise™ portfolio with Brainlab’s Elements platform to improve accuracy and efficiency at every stage. 

From pre-op trajectory planning to post-op Guide™ XT visualisation, our system ensures leads are placed and programmed with precision, reducing the need for manual adjustments¹. Less time refining², more time optimising, because precision shouldn’t come at the cost of time. 

Pre-op Planning and Post-op Review

Precision from the start, confidence at every step

The Vercise™ GENUS platform is fully integrated into Brainlab’s Elements system, providing a seamless approach to Deep Brain Stimulation.

STIMVIEWTM XT Technology

Streamline your Deep Brain Stimulation workflow with Boston Scientific's Image Guided DBS technology.


Boston Scientfic's Image Guided Programming solutions

It’s time for faster and more precise DBS programming

With STIMVIEW™ XT technology, powered by VerciseTM Neural Navigator 5 software, programming is no longer a process of trial and error. Real-time visualisation allows physicians to see exactly how stimulation interacts with the brain*, ensuring leads are positioned and adjusted with confidence.

By integrating surgical insights into the programming strategy, physicians can make quicker, more precise decisions, drastically reducing programming time while optimising symptom control.2,6

Intuitive personalised therapy

Vercise™ Neural Navigator 5 Software (VN5) makes it easier and more efficient to personalise your patients' DBS journey.
