Three dimensional representation of brain electrical activity.
Brain topography mapping is a useful technique for the representation of electrical activity recorded on the scalp. It clarifies spatial and temporal relationships between different cortical areas. In this work we propose a system which includes several enhancements over those previously proposed, such as an optimised interpolation method and a three dimensional reconstruction of maps. This system is available in a personal computer environment. Results clearly show a superiority of the 3D representation over 2D maps obtained with different projections. The performance of this system in terms of speed and precision is comparable to that of dedicated image processing and image synthesis workstations proposed for brain mapping.
