Decision

What the current evidence supports

Agent-assisted assessment · independently reviewed · 2026-10-01

Consider Layer 7 for specialist temporary cortical mapping and supervised clinical research.

Why
Clinical pilots demonstrate useful recordings and removal; FDA labeling limits use to less than 30 days, and durable therapeutic benefit remains unproven.
Next
Evaluate the cleared configuration, surgical workflow and prospective safety outcomes before expanding clinical use.

Constraints

Blockers

  • FDA labeling limits temporary use to less than 30 days.
  • The cleared electrode has no wireless capability and is not MRI-compatible.
  • Independent validation remains limited to specialized clinical pilots.
  • Long-term safety, therapeutic benefit and routine workflow repeatability remain unestablished.
