  • Patent number: 7774053
    Abstract: A neural probe array is provided for subdural implantation to record intracranial field potentials in the brain. The neural probe array includes a base having first and second sides and a plurality of apertures therebetween. A plurality of contacts are spaced along the first side of the base for recording the field potentials. It is contemplated to provide drug delivery through the apertures in the base in order to enhance the biocompatibility of the neural probe array and to utilize the field potentials recorded by the contacts to drive an external device.

  • Patent number: 6128527
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for mapping a patient's brain includes analyzing the waveform of electrical action potentials generated in the patient's brain to determine whether the waveforms match one or more predetermined waveforms. A system embodying the invention includes waveform discriminator circuitry capable of comparing the waveform of a sensed electrical action potential to predetermined waveforms. A system embodying the invention may also include a user interface for selecting a waveform and a transducer for generating a user recognizable signal when a waveform of a sensed electrical action potential matches a selected waveform.
