[Delineation of brain tumors by stereo-impedo-encephalography (SIEG) (author's transl)].

Authors describe the SEEG technique which is routinely used during stereotactic investigations of brain tumors. By the way of the Talairach's stereoencephalographic electrodes, the brain tissue impedance is measured along the probe trajectory with a four electrode impedancemeter (0.25 mA; 5 KHz). The impedance profile provides a good pattern of the brain structures which are crossed; in pathological areas, the impedance significantly decreases as well in gliomas as in edema; cysts and CSF spaces also decrease the recorded impedance. As a contrary, metastases and meningiomas increase the impedance. SEEG appears to be a sharp method for stereotactic delineation of the brain tumors; a larger series as well as the real-imaginary decomposition of the impedance are needed for a best selectivity of the method.
