Figure 6. AMIE design allows for probe explantation and subsequent re-implantation with the same Neuropixels probe.

(A) Example successful probe explanation. Cement is drilled away from the wings of the internal casing in order to remove the internal mount from the external casing. (B) Outline of experiment timing. The same probe was used in the first implant and re-implant. (C) Sample mean waveforms (n = 200, mean in yellow) from each mouse. (D) Detected event rate of the first implant versus the re-implanted probe across days of recording. (E) Median signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for first implant and re-implanted probe across days (see Materials and methods.).
