Press release, Helsinki, 23 August 2023 at 10 AM (EEST)
Nexstim Plc (NXTMH:HEX) ("Nexstim" or "Company") has received an order and delivered an NBS 5+ system to an established hospital specializing in psychiatric care in the United States.
The NBS 5+ system combines the capabilities of Nexstim’s NBS (Navigated Brain Stimulation) and NBT® (Navigated Brain Therapy) systems that are both based on Nexstim’s unique navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) technology.
The NBS system is FDA cleared for pre-surgical mapping of the speech and motor cortices of the brain and the NBT® system for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). In the case of this customer the NBS features of the system enable neuroscience studies where the stimulation needs to be targeted individually to the brain, reproducing the pulse delivery reliably for diagnosis. Navigated TMS integrated with EEG user interface offers scientists a possibility to measure TMS-evoked cortical reactivity and connectivity.
Mikko Karvinen, CEO of Nexstim, comments: “Our NBS 5+ system is a unique device that enables cross-departmental and versatile use of the diagnostic and therapy features. Our technology provides a world-leading tool for accurate and precise TMS-EEG measurements, and we are happy to announce having delivered yet another system to be used in neuroscience projects.”
