A microprobing system, which has the functions of measuring the intracranial EEG(IC-EEG) and freezing brain tissue, is proposed for the minimally invasive brain cryogenic surgery of intractable epilepsy treatment. Two fi76 µm platinum electrodes were equipped on a fi0.8 mm cryogenic probe. Epileptic burst, which was evoked on a brain sample of a rat, was measured by the electrodes. The freezing function was confirmed with the experiments with sliced hippocampus samples of a rat.
