Unprecedented Insights – Inside and Outside the Clinic

Deliver personalised, data-driven neurostimulation treatment with the only commercially available sensing technology in DBS.*

How It Works

  • Capture a patient’s brain signals while delivering stimulation using the implanted DBS lead
  • Correlate with stimulation and events capturing medication, symptoms, or side effects
  • Deliver personalised, data-driven treatment and adjust as patient needs evolve.

The Only 1.5T and 3T MR Conditional* DBS System

The expanded eligibility of the Percept™ PC device supports the most prevalent and fastest growing MRI modalities so patients can benefit from cutting-edge medical imaging when they need it.

Expanded MRI Features:

  • Creates access to 70% of MRI scanners globally
  • Expands eligibility for current Medtronic DBS patients to include 3T MRI
  • Allows DBS therapy to be ON during an MRI scan using a bipolar therapy group

Adds full-body MRI eligibility for lead-only DBS systems

* Medtronic DBS systems are MR Conditional, which means they are safe for MRI scans only under certain conditions. If the conditions are not met, the MRI could cause tissue heating, especially at the implanted lead(s) in the brain, which may result in serious and permanent injury or death. Refer to the MRI Guidelines for Medtronic Deep Brain Stimulation Systems for a complete list of conditions: http://professional.medtronic.com/mri
