A device for brain stimulation includes a lead having a longitudinal surface, a proximal end, a distal end and a lead body. The device also includes a plurality of electrodes disposed along the longitudinal surface of the lead near the distal end of the lead. The plurality of electrodes includes a first set of segmented electrodes comprising at least two segmented electrodes disposed around a circumference of the lead at a first longitudinal position along the lead; and a second set of segmented electrodes comprising at least two segmented electrodes disposed around a circumference of the lead at a second longitudinal position along the lead. The device further includes one or more conductors that electrically couple together all of the segmented electrodes of the first set of segmented electrodes.

Selon l'invention, un dispositif de stimulation cérébrale comprend un conducteur ayant une surface longitudinale, une extrémité proximale, une extrémité distale et un corps. Le dispositif comprend également une pluralité d'électrodes disposées le long de la surface longitudinale du conducteur à proximité de l'extrémité distale du conducteur. La pluralité d'électrodes comprend un premier ensemble d'électrodes segmentées comprenant au moins deux électrodes segmentées disposées le long d'une circonférence du conducteur à une première position longitudinale le long du conducteur; et un second ensemble d'électrodes segmentées comprenant au moins deux électrodes segmentées disposées le long d'une circonférence du conducteur à une seconde position longitudinale le long du conducteur. Le dispositif comprend en outre un ou plusieurs conducteur(s) qui couple/couplent électriquement les unes aux autres la totalité des électrodes segmentées du premier ensemble d'électrodes segmentées.
