MSR upgrade for clinical MEG
نویسنده
چکیده
To accommodate the new Argos 500 MEG instrument [1] a general upgrade of the existing 2+1layer magnetically shielded room at the neurological department was necessary. Due to the innovative technology and the ambitious goal more stringent requirements where set for shielding performances and shielding anisotropy. The upgrade process of the existing MSR was carried out in cooperation with Advanced Technologies Biomagnetics and consisted in:

An MEG compatible system for measuring skin conductance responses.
We present the design of a low-cost system for recording galvanic skin conductance responses (SCRs) from humans in a magnetically shielded room (MSR) simultaneously to magnetoencephalography (MEG). Such a system was so far not available to the MEG community. Its availability is of utmost importance for neuroscience, since it will allow the concurrent assessment of the autonomic and central nerv...

OBJECTIVE To assess the interictal epileptic discharges (IEDs) detection rate of magnetoencephalography (MEG) recordings performed in a new light-weight magnetic shielding (LMSR) concept in a large group of consecutive patients with presumed mesiotemporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). METHODS Thirty-eight patients (23 women; age range: 6-63 years) with presumed MTLE were prospectively studied. MEG in...

1 Introduction There have been extensive studies on high-T c SQUIDs that are fabricated from high temperature superconductor YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ (YBCO) films and utilize grain boundary junctions formed on a bicrystal-boundary or a step-edge of substrate. Single-chip magnetometers of high-T c SQUID coupled with thin-film pickup loop(s) have been developed to have low field noises below 100 fT/Hz 1/...

As a rule, MSR, which is the key segment of the proposed calculation, comprises of force controllable log operation and subbandwise increase control. To start with, we decay an info picture to MSRs of distinctive sub-groups, and figure a fitting addition for every MSR. Second, we ...
متن کاملNew Six-Layer Magnetically-Shielded Room for MEG
A high performance magnetically-shielded room (MSR) has been built by Imedco, to house a 4-D MEG system, containing both gradiometers and magnetometers (Vectorview). The MSR consists of three nested enclosures, each consisting of a high-permeability magnetic layer plus an aluminum layer, where special care was given to the junctions of the inner aluminum layer. Measurements of the passive shiel...
