The Physical Basis of Electrophysiological Brain Imaging: Exploratory Techniques for Source Localization and Waveshape Analysis of Functional Components of Electrical Brain Activity

One of the fundamental problems of electrophysiology is the determination of the neuronal generators corresponding to the functional components of brain electrical activity, based on measurements of scalp voltage differences. The solution to this problem (inverse problem of electrophysiology) would be a new type of tomography producing three-dimensional (3D) images containing functional information about the brain.
