Record 2 1992-12-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Nervous System
CONT

The most sensitive commercially available SQUID magnetometer have intrinsic sensitivities of approximately 5 femtoteslas.(Yearbook of Science and Technology, 1989, p. 63).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Système nerveux
CONT

Les magnétomètres à SQUID, utilisés pour mesurer les champs magnétiques cérébraux, sont des appareils encombrants qui doivent être refroidis à la température de l'hélium liquide (4k).

Record 3 1992-12-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Nervous System
CONT

This source may be characterized by a current dipole, a metabollically produced current element that drives volume currents through the passively conducting medium of the brain. The magnetic fields are produced by both the active source and the volume currents....(Yearbook of Science and Technology, 1989, p. 63).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Système nerveux
CONT

On peut alors calculer simplement le champ magnétique que produisent ces courants de volume. Le résultat est d'importance : dans certaines situations, les courants de volume créent un champ magnétique égal et opposé à celui du dipôle.
