A miniature atom based magnetic sensor developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been used to measure alpha waves in the brain associated with a person opening and closing their eyes, as well as signals resulting from stimulation of the hand.

 

The sensor could be used for biomedical applications such as studying mental processes and advancing the understanding of neurological diseases.

Measurements were compared with the signals recorded by a SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) – the world’s most sensitive commercially available magnetometer. Although currently less sensitive, the NIST sensor is said to have the potential for comparable performance while offering potential advantages in size, portability and cost.

International Symposium on Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics

Dedicated to the 150 anniversary of the Riga Technical University, Latvia

About

The 2012 is the 150th year of Riga Technical University (RTU). It was established as the first technical university in the former Tsarist Russia. The university soon became the centre of science and exerted a tremendous influence on economy and life both in Tsarist Russia and the Baltic region.

Now RTU is the largest technical university in Latvia and has leader positions in different fields, biomedical engineering and medical physics being one of them.
