Popis: | In this paper, we present the magnetoencephalography system developed by the Institute of Applied Sciences and Intelligent Systems of the National Research Council and recently installed in a clinical environment. The system employ ultra high sensitive magnetic sensors based on superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). SQUID sensors have been realized using a standard trilayer technology that ensures good performances over time and a good signal-to-noise ratio, even at low frequencies. They exhibit a spectral density of magnetic field noise as low as 2 fT/Hz 1/2 . Our system consists of 163 fully-integrated SQUID magnetometers, 154 channels and 9 references, and all of the operations are performed inside a magnetically-shielded room having a shielding factor of 56 dB at 1 Hz. Preliminary measurement have demonstrated the effectiveness of the MEG system to perform useful measurements for clinical and neuroscience investigations. Such a magnetoencephalography is the first system working in a clinical environment in Italy. |
