Implantable Electrode

摘要

An implantable electrode includes an elongate electrode body and at least one lumen which extends therein at least over a portion of the length of the electrode body. A pressure device reversibly supplies a pressure medium to the at least one lumen such that the electrode body varies the flexibility and/or shape thereof depending on the pressure of the pressure medium.
