Lead fixation in deep brain stimulation: comparison of three lead anchoring devices in China.

Three lead anchoring devices have been compared for their performance in the accuracy of lead fixation, in which the newly designed lead fixation devices have presented its advantages to the traditional one. In addition to the application of the Stimloc and TouchLoc devices, verification by C-arm fluoroscopy should be performed to provide an intuitive view of the depth deviation of electrode position during DBS electrode implantation.
