Systems and methods for treating movement disorders using cortical
stimulation. In one embodiment, a method for treating movement disorders
comprises determining a site at the cortex of the brain of a patient
related to a movement disorder of an afflicted body part. The site can be
determined by obtaining a representation of neural activity occurring in
the cortex of the patient and correlating an area of neural activity with
the afflicted body part. The method can also include applying neural
stimulation, such as electrical or magnetic waveforms, directly to the
site.
