Improved procedure for neuromagnetic localisation.
We describe an improved algorithm for localising equivalent sources of biomagnetic fields in the human brain. The algorithm is an improvement over the sphere model in that it considers two distinct surfaces: an ellipsoid, to model the region of the skull on which the sensors are placed, and a sphere as the medium in which the current dipole model is considered. This allows us to easily correct the formula of the magnetic field in order to take better account of the true position of the sensor with respect to the subject's head.
