TARGETED DELIVERY UNLOCKS NEW TREATMENT PARADIGMS & NEW EFFICACY

UNMATCHED PRECISION OF SURGICAL ELECTRODE ARRAYS

Our high-resolution, human implant-grade electrode technology enables precision delivery for high specificity targeting. Our ultra-thin, low-profile, reinforced, and utilize a delamination-free construction using only implant-grade materials.

PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRODES

Micro-Leads has developed the first Smart Programmable Electrodes to unlock a new class of Smart Implants. Our technology represents the lowest-profile and highest channel count interface to the spinal cord and brain computer interface (BCI) using the fewest wires. Micro-Leads developed the first Smart Programmable Electrodes by using hermetic electronics within each electrode array to provide a scalable access to 64-256 therapeutic electrodes (yet using only a fraction of the wires as conventional devices and BCIs). We have proprietary electronic chips to power, communicate, and multiplex read-write signals into the nervous system.

BREAKTHROUGH INJECTABLE PERCUTANEOUS ADVANCEMENTS

PERCUTANEOUS SHAPE-MEMORY ELECTRODES​

Shape-memory Smart Implant Electrodes are self-expanding. Self-expanding arrays provide a new minimally-invasive and injectable delivery paradigms by unlocking treatment to a 3-5x larger therapeutic area. Self-expanding electrodes are ultra-low profile and treat peripheral nerves, cranial nerves, and the spinal cord for targeted delivery.​

SELF-EXPANDING INJECTABLE ELECTRODES​

Self-expanding electrodes are compressible into a catheter and re-expand like a stent in dense tissues. Self-expanding wide leads enable a wider therapeutic treatment area yet with a minimally-invasive needle procedure. Array options: 2x4, 2x8, 2x12, 3x8, 4x6, 4x8​​
