Deep Brain Stimulation is an alternative way for treating some motion disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and essential tremor. In order to stimulate some brain centers during this intervention; high frequency electric fields are generated close by them. This involves permanently implanting a number of electrodes inside the brain. The final position of the electrodes is specified by the neurologist with the aid of fused data from CT and MR scans. In order to improve the therapeutic benefits of this treatment; the generated electric field must be studied. I developed a visualization and image analysis framework for visualize and insert the electrodes inside the brain. A mesh generator for the brain was added to the framework. The result model can be used by a PDE solver for interpreting the electric field distribution.
