In the treatment of epilepsy and Parkinson's disease, are neurostimulation devices beneficial?
One type of neurostimulation devices used today is the application of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

Neurostimulation Devices is a new and emerging product for the healthcare field. There are many different types of neurostimulation devices currently on the market, ranging from non-invasive options like topical creams and ointments to invasive options like electrotherapy.

Primarily there are two types of Neurostimulation Devices in the medical world: implantable and non-implantable. Implantable neurostimulation devices must be surgically placed into the brain. Unlike Electrotherapy, which can be applied to the brain through a variety of methods (punching needles into the head), implantable devices must be placed into the brain by way of a procedure known as craniopagus decompression. The surgeon will make a small incision in the cranium, then insert the implantable probe into the incision. Implantable devices are often more effective than non-implantable ones. However, this is due to the fact that non-implantable devices are, for the most part, much less effective; when a non-implantable device is used, the effectiveness rate is about one third to one half.
