IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering contains basic and applied papers dealing with biomedical engineering. Papers range from engineering development in methods and techniques with biomedical applications to experimental and clinical investigations with engineering contributions.
Tatsuji Tokiwa (M’12) was born in Fukuoka, Japan, in 1980. He received the B.Eng., M.Eng., and Ph.D. degrees from the Kyushu Institute of Technology, Fukuoka, Japan, in 2004, 2006, and 2009, respectively.
He was a Postdoctoral Fellow with the Department of Brain Science and Engineering, Graduate School of Life Science and Systems Engineering, Kyushu Institute of Technology. He is currently an Assistant Professor at Hiroshima City University, Hiroshima, Japan. His research interests include signal processing, mathematical model of central pattern generator, multilegged robotics, electroencephalography, and epilepsy.
The purpose of this study is to propose the palm-sized cryoprobe system based on a new concept and to suggest that the freezing technique could be used for treatment of epilepsy. We propose herein a cryoprobe system based on the...
