Brainlab integrates Nexstim and NBS systems into neurosurgical workflow
What happened
Brainlab announced the integration of Nexstim technology and NBS systems into its neurosurgical workflow. This integration folds the nTMS mapping step into Brainlab's existing comprehensive neurosurgical offering, which already includes planning software and navigation systems. The collaboration is intended to drive market adoption of navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) technology, which is being explored for conditions such as major depressive disorder.

Why it matters
The integration addresses previous barriers to nTMS adoption, such as the need for an additional vendor and a capital investment of $300k per system. By incorporating the technology, Brainlab removes the separate vendor relationship and simplifies the workflow for surgeons. This strategic move positions Brainlab to leverage its installed base to increase the use of this relatively novel presurgical mapping technology.
