Claims20
A microsurgical tool comprising:
- at least one microfinger;
- and
- at least one sensing tip coupled to the at least one microfinger, the at least one sensing tip comprising an isolation layer selectively coated over one or more regions of the at least one sensing tip to expose an electrically conducting material providing one or more electrodes;
- wherein the at least one microfinger is configured to bias the at least one sensing tip against a region of a wall of a lumen to interface at least a portion of the exposed electrically conducting material of the at least one sensing tip providing at least one of the one or more electrodes with the wall of the lumen;
- and
- wherein the at least one sensing tip is configured to convey one or more electrophysiological signals, measured by said at least one electrode, associated with electrophysiological activity in the region of the wall of the lumen.
