SYSTEM TO DETECT LEAD LOCATION FROM MEDICAL IMAGE
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a user interface configured to receive a user input;
control/processing circuitry configured to;
receive images in real-time during a surgical procedure including a medical image of the at least one neurostimulation lead relative to an anatomical structure;
process the medical image to detect a location of the at least one neurostimulation lead relative to the anatomical structure; and
use both the user input and the detected location to generate a set of stimulation parameters that control electrical energy delivered from the at least one neurostimulation lead.

Abstract
An external control system for use with a neurostimulation device and at least one neurostimulation lead implanted within the tissue of a patient is provided. The external control system comprises a user interface configured for receiving input from a user, output circuitry configured for communicating with the neurostimulation device, and control/processing circuitry configured for receiving a medical image of the neurostimulation lead(s) relative to an anatomical structure, processing the medical image to detect the location of the neurostimulation lead(s) relative to the anatomical structure, generating a set of stimulation parameters based on the user input and the detected location of the neurostimulation lead(s) relative to the anatomical structure, and directing the output circuitry to transmit instructions to the neurostimulation device to convey electrical stimulation energy in accordance with the stimulation parameter set.
