Abstract :
The paper presents a novel bipolar electrode for continuous evaluation and identification of neural dysfunction. The hook-up design realized with a careful choice of biocompatible materials, enhances the easy of implantation and positioning of the electrode during the medical procedure. In this regard, the proposed electrode offers a promising alternative for applications in neural electrical stimulation and recording.
