Impedance of tissue between two electrodes having interelectrode distance of about 0.5 mm was monit-ored as the electrodes inserted into the brain.

For this purpose, specially designed alternating cur-rent bridge was used. In this system, the maximal current density at the surface of electrodes approx-imated 10×10-12 amp/μ2, far beneath levels which produce neural excitation or damage and the system could readily resolve a 0.1 to 0.5 per cent shift in impedance from mean value of 5,000 ohrms.

The driving system was designed to provide down-ward or upward movement of the electrodes at a constant rate of 0.05 to 0.5 mm/sec.

In animal experiments, wide variety of brain struc-tures could be identified. The electrodes, after trav-ersing the upper portion of the hemisphere, encoun-tered cortical sulcus, corpus callosum, ventricle, thal-amus and anterior commissure, then the fiber of optic tract : these structures were all reflected in the imped-ance traces.

Our data confirmed Robinson's observations and variations in intracerebral impedance were primarily due to changes in myelination : increase in myelination was accompanied by an increase in impedance.
