Abstract
The present invention relates to methods and systems for planning and/or providing neuromodulation. An example system comprisesa neurostimulator comprising a least one electrode,functional mapping module configured and arranged such that based on stimulation related basic data and stimulation related response data and transfer data a digital characteristic functional map is generated and/or provided, which describes the interrelation between the stimulation related basic data and the stimulation related response data and the transfer data, and analysis module configured and arranged such that the digital characteristic functional map may be analyzed in connection with neurostimulation provided by the neurostimulator such that the provided neurostimulation and its response may be analyzed on the basis of the functional map and that on the basis of this analysis a placement analysis of a placement of the electrode is provided.
