Press release, Helsinki, 9 June 2023 at 9 AM (EEST)
Nexstim Plc (NXTMH:HEX) ("Nexstim" or "Company") announces having received an NBS 5+ system order from the United States. The customer is acquiring the system for neuroscience use.
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. 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 values are solidly grounded in science, and Nexstim has been actively working as a partner in TMS-EEG development. Nexstim’s navigated TMS technology provides a world-leading tool for accurate and precise TMS-EEG measurements as TMS-evoked EEG responses are sensitive to even the smallest shifts in stimulation location. Also, our reliable technology is especially helpful in studies that require repeatability and reproducibility.
We are pleased to see our technology used in neuroscience projects. Especially with our combined diagnostics and therapy system option, we aim to facilitate future innovation in the leading research hospitals and centers of the world.”
