AI Article Synopsis

  • Subdural electrocorticography (ECoG) is important for neuroscience and clinical applications, but the optimal density of electrodes on ECoG grids needs to be clarified to avoid oversampling.
  • This study examines the relationship between ECoG grid density and the unique neurophysiological information captured by electrode pairs, focusing on the sensorimotor cortex using high-density and ultra-high-density grids.
  • Results show that as electrode distance increases, the unique information also increases until it levels off at 15 mm; ultra-high-density ECoG recordings capture significantly more unique information than high-density ones, suggesting that very close electrode placements are beneficial.

Article Abstract

Subdural electrocorticography (ECoG) is a valuable technique for neuroscientific research and for emerging neurotechnological clinical applications. As ECoG grids accommodate increasing numbers of electrodes and higher densities with new manufacturing methods, the question arises at what point the benefit of higher density ECoG is outweighed by spatial oversampling. To clarify the optimal spacing between ECoG electrodes, in the current study we evaluate how ECoG grid density relates to the amount of non-shared neurophysiological information between electrode pairs, focusing on the sensorimotor cortex. We simultaneously recorded high-density (HD, 3 mm pitch) and ultra-high-density (UHD, 0.9 mm pitch) ECoG, obtained intraoperatively from six participants. We developed a new metric, the normalized differential root mean square (ndRMS), to quantify the information that is not shared between electrode pairs. The ndRMS increases with inter-electrode center-to-center distance up to 15 mm, after which it plateaus. We observed differences in ndRMS between frequency bands, which we interpret in terms of oscillations in frequencies below 32 Hz with phase differences between pairs, versus (un)correlated signal fluctuations in the frequency range above 64 Hz. The finding that UHD recordings yield significantly higher ndRMS than HD recordings is attributed to the amount of tissue sampled by each electrode. These results suggest that ECoG densities with submillimeter electrode distances are likely justified.
