▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - The carrier (100) has cortical brain stimulation and deep brain stimulation that is provided with a proximal end (104) and a distal end (106), comprises at least two zones (108, 110) each comprising electrodes (112). The flexible carrier is at least substantially elongated. The electrodes in each of the zones comprise at least one type of electrodes. The type of an electrode is the group of size, shape, and material. The material of which the electrodes are made is reduced-graphene oxide or platinum-iridium alloy. The types of electrodes are each arranged in an individual pattern within the zones. USE - Flexible electrode carrier for performing neurostimulation. ADVANTAGE - The flexible electrode carrier is developed in such a way that more than one targeted brain area can be reached better with only one flexible electrode carriers and that the stimulation field can be adjusted more accurately in relation to the targeted brain areas. The flexibility of the lead allows the lead to be adapted to perfectly fit to the two different brain areas by aligning the two zones to at least two brain areas, since the targets do not have to be arranged or situated in a straight line. The invasiveness of the therapy is reduced, by having more active regions on the same electrode carrier, whereas an active region shall be understood as region of two electrode, further having electrodes with e.g. different function(s) or electrodes with varying anatomical shape, several regions to be stimulated can be addressed concurrently with one lead. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a schematic representation of a flexible electrode carrier. Proximal end (104) Distal end (106) First zone (108) Second zone (110) Electrodes (112)
