A Numerical Study to Compare Stimulations by Intraoperative Microelectrodes and Chronic Macroelectrodes in the DBS Technique

Figure 4

Distribution of the electric potential 𝑉 induced by the macroelectrode on a plane parallel to 𝑥𝑧. The projections of the 12 lines on the plane are highlighted. Among them, two groups have been identified: L1–7, passing closer to the anode; L8–12, passing closer to the cathode.
