Our Project
Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the principal functional brain-imaging techniques used in brain-related scientific and medical applications. During non-invasive neuroimaging EEG, the neuron-induced electric potentials are measured using electrodes on the patient’s scalp. However, the skull shields EEG recordings, limiting spatial resolution. Alternative and significantly more accurate EEG techniques require skull trepanation and implantation of electrodes under the skull, while imaging only a limited part of the brain. The EU-funded CEREBRO project aims to develop the first EEG contrast medium to allow non-invasive entire-brain imaging.
