| Zusammenfassung | A SQUID magnetometer was used for measuring DC-magnetoencephalography (DC-MEG) followed by the recording of the free precession decay of protons (FPD) of the human brain. The SQUID system has a white noise level of about 4 fT/fiHz. The MR system has two magnetic fields: a static polarization field of some mT an a static detection field of 1µT. We measured the FPD of protons in distilled water with a spectral line width of about 156 mHz and in human brain with a line width of approximately 1.5 Hz. After a motor stimulation paradigm we could record a DC-MEG signal with an amplitude near 1 pT. The next step of the project is the simultaneous recording of both signals and the detection of changes in the FPD due to brain activity. |
