Abstract
A body implantable electrode lead including a connector structure for enabling connection with an outermost conductor of the lead is disclosed. The implantable lead is of a multilayer configuration, being covered by an insulating biocompatible sheath. An annular section of the outer sheath is removed to expose a corresponding annular section of the outermost conductor of the lead. The exposed conductor section can be used as an electrode either directly or by attaching a conductive electrode ring via swaging, a conductive adhesive or the like.
