Biomedical magnetic stimulations are widely used. However, proper stimulus intensity measurement has not been provided for clinical application. This paper proposes a Pulse Magnetic Flux density measuring Sensor (PMFS) that consists of 2an2 sensor coil and 2Oms time constant integrator. This PMFS works without the need of power supply which allows simple use for clinical magnetic stimulation. Introduction High magnetic flux density and frequent magnetic stimulations to rat heads produced microvacuolar changes on the neuropil portion of cortex [l]. It is an essential requirement for magnetic stimulation to measure the stimulus intensity before and after the practices. However, proper stimulus intensity index is not provided but using % of the maximum output or the capacitor bank charged voltage . As a solution to the raised problem, this paper proposes the PMFS that is able to measure magnetic flux density B and its time derivative dB/dt [2) as stimulus intensity indexes. Methods An optimal sensor coil size design is investigated. 1: Magnetic flux density distribution Bz by a donut shaped stimulation coil is calculated (inner radius 33.5mm,outer radius 54mm,N=9 turns, current I4600A). 2: Bz distortions by various sensor coil sizes are calculated. 3:Prototype PMFS is designed. Fig.lA. Polygon approximation for the stimulation coil. (K=32).Fig.lB. Magnetic flux density B calculation by Biot Savart’s law at the point d. 1:Magnetic flux density Bz is calculated by Eq.(l). A polygon approximation (Fig.l,K=32) and BiotSavart’s law are applied for the magnetic flux density calculations by each polygon segment. The magnetic flux density contributions from each polygon semnent are summed at an observation point. 2:Flux density distributions Bz measured by finite sensor coils are distorted as Bzs as Fig.2.

To study the current dlstributlon inslde the human thorax for defibrillation shock, a complete human thorax model with detailed cardiac anatomy was constructed using CT Images. Twenty seven tlssues or organs were Menttfled by two dlmensbnal (2D) contours. Three dlmensional solids of the organs were reconstructed from these 2D contours using a solid modeling software tool. The electrode systems can be placed lnto the solid model of human thorax and the whole system can then be meshed into tetrahedrons using the Delauney Tessellation.

A microelectrode was used to stimulate motor neurons in the lumbo-sacral spinal cord of adult cats. Consistent with spinal cord anatomical studies, we found that the motor neurons responsible for activation of individual muscle groups are situated together in specific areas of the cord, forming motor pools. Localized spinal cord stimulation of these motor pools enables selective activation of individual muscle groups. By modulating the magnitude of stimulation at different sites in the motor pools, we should be able to selectively activate different muscle groups to produce desired levels of contraction and controlled limb movements.

-A physical model representing the optical properties of layered biological tissue was constructed for the s tudy of light reflectance. Reflectance was measured for a spot light source incident on a medium that contained diffusive and absorptive layers. Results were analyzed by means of an index defined as the natural log ratio of reflectance intensities from a uniform and a test medium. The index was determined as a function of source-detector separation distance. The study reveals that the shape of the index curves for diffusive and absorptive layers a t depth within the medium are similar, but differ in the separation a t which a test medium begins to diverge from a uniform medium. These results demonstrate that absorptive layers must be considered separately from diffusive layers within a biological material.
