In the MRI Environment 16. Take MRI image to confirm location for DBS implant. 17. In WayPoint™ Navigator, load MRI image and merge with platform plan. 18. If the position is not correct, reposition using offset positioner and/or hub. Alternately, use one of the four available tracks in the ben-gun array.
In the non-MRI Environment 19. Secure lead holder to the DBS measurement fixture. 20. Pinch the tabs of the LeadLoc together slightly and slide the distal end of the lead through the top of the LeadLoc to approximately 25 mm from the lead stylet handle, making sure the lead is in the center notch of the LeadLoc. WARNING: Do NOT over-pinch the tabs.
