Patent abstract

With use of three-dimensional data of a brain shape, a mold for forming a sheet-shaped structure having a three-dimensional shape of the gyrus or sulcus surface, or the interhemispheric fissure or interlobar fissure surface is formed. With use of the mold, a sheet-shaped silicone structure 2 having a three-dimensional shape of the gyrus or sulcus surface, or the interhemispheric fissure or interlobar fissure surface is formed. An electrode 3 is arranged on at least one side of the silicone structure 2. With this configuration, an intracranial electrode 1 in which the electrode 3 is arranged on the sheet-shaped silicone structure 2 having the three-dimensional shape of the gyrus or sulcus surface, or the interhemispheric fissure or interlobar fissure surface can be produced.
