Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Summary

The authors designed a special capsule for local exclusion of cerebral cortex by low temperatures. Cold solution is passed through this apparatus which decreases the cortical temperature down to 19–20 C. The capsule is supplied by electrodes, which allow stimulation of various areas of the brain by electric current (for control) during cooling.
