title: Intracerebral electrode implantation system. Technical note.
abstract: A new technique for deep-brain electrode implantation is described. A very flexible nontraumatic electrode guided by a central stylet and a new electrode head-fixation screw are the two unique features of this system. Electrodes can be guided precisely and their watertight fixation to the bone by means of the special screw is reliable and totally reversible. The system has been designed to fit most of the stereotaxic frames currently in use.
