Scalp current density mapping during motor task with passive viewing of visual stimulation
The study on the brain is an inexact science. Since the advent of medical technology, humans have been trying to study and understand the brain as the most complex organ in the human anatomy. The activity of human brain can be measured using electroencephalograph (EEG). However, EEG measurement in t...

The study on the brain is an inexact science. Since the advent of medical technology, humans have been trying to study and understand the brain as the most complex organ in the human anatomy.

However, EEG measurement in the form of Scalp Potential (SP) is noisy and have poor spatial distribution, thus it is more appropriate for topographic mapping to be done for Scalp Current Density (SCD). The "10-20" system or "International 10-20" system is an internationally recognized method to describe and apply the location of scalp electrodes in the context of an EEG test or experiment. In this system, one uses fractional distances between previously placed electrodes to locate new electrodes and this has led to the use of scalp potential distribution mapping.
