Deep lesioning involves deliberately damaging a part of the brain by sending an electrical current through a wire to destroy the brain cells at the tip of the wire. ESB (electrical stimulation of the brain) involves sending an electrical current to stimulate rather than damage brain cells. EEG (electroencephalography) involves measuring electrical activity in the brain rather than damaging it. Lobotomy involves removing or damaging a larger portion of the brain rather than a specific area.
