Learning outcomes
Student can describe the bioelectric sources and conductors of the body and model them with basic equivalent and computational methods. Student can solve simple bioelectromagnetic source-field calculations. Student can describe and compare different theoretical analysis methods of bioelectric volume sources and conductors, and apply theem to the analysis and design of different types of bioelectric measurements. Student can describe and compare different algorithms in solving the bioelectric inverse problem. Student can demonstrate, how different bioelectric phenomena of the body are applied in clinical applications.
