A Linear Estimation Approach to Biomagnetic Imaging

A reconstruction algorithm based on linear estimation theory in combination with Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse techniques is presented in order to image complex current distributions. Phantom experiments with current dipoles immersed in saline solution inside a glass phantom head and computer simulations demonstrate the applicability to biomagnetic imaging.
