Platinum-Iridium Head Electrode


Platinum-iridium is an important precious metal material that combines the chemical stability of platinum with the high melting point of iridium, resulting in platinum-iridium electrodes that have excellent conductivity, good stability, and outstanding corrosion resistance. The role and value of platinum-iridium electrodes in the medical industry cannot be overlooked. In the medical field, platinum-iridium electrodes are commonly used for electrophysiological testing and nerve stimulation, among other applications. Cardiac pacemakers use platinum-iridium electrodes to achieve stable and reliable conductive performance, ensuring the normal operation of the device. Platinum-iridium electrodes are also used in deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgeries, where they are implanted in the patient's brain to stimulate specific nerve areas and improve symptoms.
