Summary
The electrical conductivity of brain lesions varies with pathological situations such as edema and calcification. The effect of the tissue inhomogeneities of brain lesions on spatial distributions of electrical potentials and magnetic fields over the surface of the head was studied by means of a computer simulation.
Riassunto
La conduttività elettrica delle lesioni cerebrali varia con situazioni patologiche come l’edema e la calcificazione. È stato studiato mediante una simulazione con il computer l’effetto delle disomogeneità dei tessuti delle lesioni cerebrali sulle distribuzioni spaziali dei potenziali elettrici e dei campi magnetici sulla superficie del capo.
