A method of treating a neurological disorder in a patient is provided. The
method comprises intravascularly delivering a first electrical lead
within the head of the patient, and non-vascularly delivering a second
electrical lead within the head the patient. The vascular and
intravascular leads are placed adjacent brain tissue (e.g., cortical
brain tissue or deep brain tissue). Optionally, the method comprises
implanting a source of stimulation and/or recorder within the patient's
body, and then electrically coupling the proximal ends of the electrical
leads to the implanted device. Using the electrical leads, the brain
tissue can then be stimulated and/or recorded in order to treat the
neurological disorder.
