A new doctor in the neuroengineering team!

After 5 years of work in the team as PhD student, Dorian Vogel successfully defended his Doctoral thesis on the 3rd of June 2022 in Linköping, Sweden. The thesis was co-financed by the School of Life Sciences, the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research, and the Swedish Research Council via the neuroengineering team at Linköping university (https://liu.se/en/research/neuroengineering-lab). The thesis was supervised by Prf. Karin Wårdell from Linköping University and Prf. Simone Hemm at the FHNW.Photo by Matthias AltermattDorian’s work, titled Deep Brain Stimulation Atlases in Movement Disorders – from Patient-Specific to Group Analysis, focused on providing means to analyze and visualize the multitude of data that is collected in the clinical process around the implantation of deep brain stimulation systems for individual patients with help of sensor-based evaluation of symptoms and electric field simulations. This was done with the data from patients affected with Essential tremor operated in France and…

Development of a sensor fusion method for AR-based surgical navigation

Current surgical navigation systems are mostly limited to displaying their results on external monitors in the vicinity of the patient, which forces the surgeon to switch between the displayed planning and the surgical site. Augmented reality (AR) devices reduce this problem by directly displaying the planning in the surgeon’s field…

MANADBS project

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been widely accepted as an effective treatment for movement disorders such as Parkinson Disease (PD), essential tremor or dystonia. During DBS, high-frequency (mostly 130Hz) electrical stimulation is applied to disrupt the abnormal information flow using multi-contact electrodes implanted in the structures of the brain…

STABLE Project

Tremor is an involuntary, rhythmic muscle contraction leading to shaking movements and thus affecting daily life activities. Often people relate tremor with Parkinson’s disease. However, the cause of shaking body parts may be the result of other diseases or disorders like essential tremor, cerebellar, physiological, or psychogenic tremor. Over 22…
