摘要: Distributed linear solutions are widely used in source localization to solve the ill-posed EEG/MEG inverse problem. In classical approach based on dipole sources, these methods estimate current densities at a great number of brain sites, typically nodes 3-D grid which discretizes chosen solution space. The estimated density distributions displayed as electromagnetic tomography (BET) images. We have tested well known minimum norm (MN, WMN, LORETA) and other [WROP, sLORETA, interference uniform, gain weight vector normalized (WVN), new named SLF (Standardized Lead Field)], using MEG configuration (BTi Magnes 2500 WH with 148 axial magnetometers) realistic head model BEM (Boundary Element Method). were compared noise-free condition presence noise errors (DLE) together figure merit that we called max uniformity, measures capability an show spots activity similar amplitudes tomographies when multiple sources moments simultaneously active.
