THE OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT OF SCIENTISTS; TWO DISABLED PATIENTS WITH BRAIN IMPLANTS WERE ABLE TO WALK AGAIN

https://cdn.entekhab.ir/files/fa/news/1403/9/14/1867328_904.jpg

✍️ Two patients with spinal cord injuries have been able to walk short distances and even climb stairs after a groundbreaking brain implant procedure.

👉 Two patients with spinal cord injuries have been able to walk short distances and even climb stairs after a brain implant procedure. 👉 The procedure uses a technique called deep brain stimulation to regain control over leg muscles. 👉 The patients were previously paralyzed and used wheelchairs. 👉 The researchers hope that future advancements will allow the patients to walk further and faster.
