Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Deep brain stimulation involves surgically implanting electrodes into specific areas of the brain, typically the basal ganglia, thalamus, or subthalamic nucleus, and connecting them to an implanted device, often placed under the collarbone, that regulates the electrical impulses. This procedure is used to treat conditions such as Parkinson's disease, dystonia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The other options listed do not involve implanting electrodes into the brain.
