Dipole source derivation. Application to the half-field pattern evoked potential.
Dipole modelling is a technique for estimating the location of sources of electrical activity in the brain responsible for the generation of surface recorded potentials on the human scalp. A detailed description of this technique is given with a modification that allows for possible activity at the reference electrode during the surface potential measurement. The application of this technique to localisation of the source of the principal components of the left half-field pattern visual evoked potential is described.
