Brain stimulation programming
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- displaying, on a user interface of a computing device, a graphical representation of a model of a network of interconnected anatomical structures of a patient, wherein the graphical representation of the network includes graphical links indicating functional relationships between the anatomical structures;
receiving user input via the user interface specifying at least one effect of therapy delivered by an implantable medical device to at least one of the anatomical structures of the patient; and
determining, with a processor, one or more therapy parameter values with which the implantable medical device generates therapy based on the user input and the functional relationships between the anatomical structures.

Abstract
A programming system allows a user to program therapy parameter values for therapy delivered by a medical device by specifying a desired therapeutic outcome. In an example, the programming system presents a model of a brain network associated with a patient condition to the user. The model may be a graphical representation of a network of anatomical structures of the brain associated with the patient condition and may indicate the functional relationship between the anatomical structures. Using the model, the user may define a desired therapeutic outcome associated with the condition, and adjust excitatory and/or inhibitory effects of the stimulation on the anatomical structures. The system may determine therapy parameter values for therapy delivered to the patient based on the user input.

12. A system comprising:
-
a user interface that displays a graphical representation of a model of a network of interconnected anatomical structures of a patient, wherein the graphical representation of the network includes graphical links indicating functional relationships between the anatomical structures, wherein the user interface is configured to receive user input specifying at least one effect of therapy delivered by an implantable medical device to at least one of the anatomical structures of the patient; and a processor that determines one or more therapy parameter values with which the implantable medical device generates therapy based on the user input and the functional relationships between the anatomical structures. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
