Stay on the cutting edge of cranial targeting with the feature-rich Guideline 4000 LP+. The easy to use, familiar interface simplifies target localization without limiting data analysis and export options-- the LP+ manages the data while you focus on the patient.
Scaled to your Needs – The LP+ can be built with 1-5 channels for recording, stimulation, event tagging, LFP and spike analysis, and signal replay; up to 10 channels available for research users. Choose a portable case or cart with your complete system.
Quick Procedural Set-Up – Customizable preferences streamline set-up in the operating room. FHC will work with your team to pre-configure profiles for frameless, single and array configurations, as well as individual screen and report settings.
Crisp Audio – The LP+ delivers clear signals needed to navigate to target. New audio equalizer allows fine-tuning of the acoustical mix.
Stimulation Control – New features allow simultaneous stimulation and recording, and ability to test custom-designed stimulation protocols. Performing high-level research has never been easier.
Data Analysis and Export options – The LP+ has ample options for exporting data to MATLAB. Clinical users can now connect to their Waypoint Navigator to export depth and spike rate data for track visualization and analysis.
Reliable – The LP+ is durable and robust. FHC’s technical team provides on-site training and installation to ensure optimal performance and is available 24/7 to answer questions and provide operational support.
"I have worked with all of the commercially available microelectrode recording (MER) systems, and I think that the Guideline System is the best. The 2.0 software user interface is intuitive, the recording quality is excellent, and the micro- and macro- stimulation capabilities are unparalleled….”
- Michael S. Remple, PhD, Sr. Clinical Neurophysiologist, Asst Director of DBS program, Sentient, Inc.
User profiles facilitate rapid operating room setup
- Save equipment, recording, stimulation, and display preferences
- Save multiple profiles on the same Guideline 4000™ system
- Transfer profiles between systems
- Factory-specified profiles provide known, “good” configurations
- Onsite technical support sets initial profiles during system installation
A “raster” tab for viewing snapshots of all recorded events simultaneously
- Recorded snapshots are displayed according to depth
- Snapshots can be classified, color-coded, and replayed from the raster tab
- Analysis mode plots root-mean-square voltage versus depth for raster snapshots, providing an additional track selection/target identification tool
Local field potential recording capabilities (with optional hardware upgrades)
- Simultaneous low-frequency population and high-frequency spike data displays
- Fully adjustable digital filters, sampling rate, adaptive line noise filter, and gain for each channel
- Optional preamplifier hardware allows recording from 0.1 Hz-20kHz, 48 kHz sampling rate per channel
- Optional “breakout box” to independently feed out channels to downstream recording/analysis systems
- Export data directly to Matlab, Plexon or other data formats
Enhanced display configurability
- Resize, undock, and move signal analysis windows and channel thumbnails
- Drag windows and thumbnails to a second display
- Drag auxiliary channels (for accelerometer, EKG, etc.) into analysis windows to change zoom and to resize
- Switch between triggered spikes mode, chart recorder (continuous/oscilloscope) mode, and raster view mode
- Simultaneously display spikes and chart recorder data for any channel
Improved stimulation and impedance check functions
- Check impedance on multiple channels with one button press
- Stimulate up to 60 seconds with one button press
- Improved stimulation current readout
