A Finite Element Mesh Generation Algorithm and Application to Human Head Modeling

摘要

The finite element method (FEM) geometry modeling of realistic head volume conductor plays an important role in FEM-based EEG/MEG forward and inverse problems. In this paper, a tetrahedron mesh generation method was developed for finite element modeling of human head. By using this method, a finite element model of human head is obtained from segmented medical images, and tested in application to the FEM-based EEG forward problem.
