Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Neuroscience Instrumentation

Context:

  • Development of advanced neuroimaging systems
  • Integration of electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG)

Purpose:

  • Design and analyze a low-noise multichannel EEG amplifier system
  • Ensure electromagnetic compatibility with SQUID systems for simultaneous EEG-MEG recordings

Summary:

  • A novel EEG amplifier system was developed, achieving electromagnetic compatibility with SQUIDs within a magnetically shielded room.
  • Noise analysis demonstrated minimal influence (<1%) from amplifier and electrode sources on EEG spectral densities (0.5-70 Hz).
  • Thermal noise from the skin-electrode interface becomes significant only above 20 Hz, negating the need for skin abrasion.
