Abstract<br />

In this paper we apply an inverse approach for 3D current sources reconstruction using measured magnetic field<br />

data. The reconstruction approach is based on the 3D Green’s function of Poisson and Helmholtz equations. The<br />

developed approach was effectively applied for current source distribution reconstruction of coil in linear nonmagnetic<br />

media.<br />

Introduction<br />

Current source distributions in biological structures are extremely important for medical<br />

diagnosis and therapy treatments in various applications.<br />

Magneto CardioGraphy (MCG) and Magneto EncephaloGraphy (MEG) process measured<br />

magnetic field data outside the human body, near the chest or head, for inside current imaging<br />

used for medical diagnoses.<br />

In magnetic stimulation therapy applications, current pulses are supplied to the coil to produce<br />

a strong magnetic field to stimulate nerve fibres. Magnetic stimulation occurs as result of the<br />

current flow and the accompanying electric field induced in the tissue by an externally applied<br />

magnetic field. Determination of magnetic field and current distributions in the tissue in order<br />

to generate prescribed stimulation effect is an inverse source problem.<br />

The current density distribution is basic part in coil design optimisation and electromagnetic<br />

systems syntheses.<br />

In this paper we apply an inverse approach for 3D current sources reconstruction using<br />

measured magnetic field data. The reconstruction approach uses 3D Green’s function. The<br />

magnetic fields are measured in a surface mesh over the tested object region. These data are<br />

used for field source reconstruction in inaccessible for direct measurements region.<br />

The developed reconstruction approach is effectively applied for current source distribution<br />

reconstruction of a circular coil in linear non-magnetic media.<br />

Inverse approach<br />

The magnetic field distribution can be described through the Green’s (1, 2) functions of<br />

Poisson(3) and Helmholtz(4) equations for magnetic vector potential(MVP) and complex<br />

MVP. [1, 4, 5]<br />
