INTRACEREBRAL CURRENT SIMULATION METHOD AND DEVICE THEREOF AND TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION SYSTEM INCLUDING INTRACEREBRAL CURRENT SIMULATION DEVICE

摘要

A method for simulating an in-brain current includes: a first step of providing head image data including at least a portion of a brain of tomogram data of a patient; A second step of forming a three-dimensional brain model consisting of the respective micro-polyhedron units obtained by dividing at least one region constituting the brain into micro elements among the head image data provided in the first step; A coil is placed on the head of a patient, a magnetic stimulus is given to the brain of the patient by applying a current to the coil, and at least the conditions of the position and direction of the coil, A third step of providing first information including a condition of a current applied to the coil and a condition of a structure related to a generating magnetic field of the coil; A fourth step of calculating an eddy current or an electric field induced in each micro-polyhedron unit of the three-dimensional brain model on the basis of the first information provided in the third step and the second information including the conductivity assigned to each of the micro-polyhedron units .
