Abstract
A system and method for analyzing bioelectrical signals generated during a deep brain stimulation (DBS) includes an apparatus having a housing having a signal input and a signal output and an electrical circuit disposed within the housing and electrically coupled between the signal input and the signal output. The electrical circuit is configured to receive bioelectrical signals corresponding to a cyclic excitation signal transmitted by a pulse generator during a DBS and generate an output signal comprising a series of timing pulses, wherein each timing pulse simulates an envelope of the cyclic excitation signal. The signal output of the housing is electrically coupleable to an auxiliary trigger input of an imaging system and the series of timing pulses can be used to trigger image data acquisition.
