title: A specialised computer-based monitoring system for intraoperative electrocorticography.
abstract: We have developed a computer-based intraoperative ECoG monitoring system which offers the flexibility of digital recording and allows detailed review of recorded events without interrupting monitoring. In addition, a diagram showing the electrode positions on the brain can be generated on computer screen and subsequently displayed during monitoring--this allows automatic indication of the electrode positions corresponding to specific ECoG channels and can provide the surgeon with a clear visual impression of the area of spiking.
