The MDS-European Section School on Neuromodulation for Movement Disorders gives a unique opportunity for neurologists, neurosurgeons, nurses and other allied health personnel to receive an overview on neuromodulation techniques with hands-on sessions, in particular concerning deep brain stimulation (DBS). Students will attend lectures and panel discussions with question and answer sessions in the morning. They will also attend hand-on sessions dealing with the programming of CE marked DBS systems, surgical planning, and postoperative lead location and visualized programming. Students will also see how to program and follow real patients with DBS, and engage in a constructive discussion with the international experts. Topics will focus on all aspects of surgery for Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, tremor and children with movement disorders.
