Abstract

The FEM geometry modeling of realistic head is a key issue for the research on FEM-based EEG/MEG. In this paper, a methodology is developed to construct this kind of model. By using this method, a five-layer realistic head FEM model is obtained, and with its application in FEM-based EEG, a satisfying result shows the reliability of the model.
