Abstract

A method of manufacturing a feedthrough having an enhanced hermetic sealing and used for a human implantable medical device such as a deep brain stimulator, a implantable AED, a implantable spinal cord stimulator and so on. Thus, more enhanced reproducibility and productivity in the diffusion welding and the laser hole machining may be guaranteed in the present method of manufacturing the feedthrough, compared to the conventional method using the ceramic metallizing and the brazing.
