    Abstract

    This paper describes modelling and simulation of a head model which incorporates both the geometries and conductivities of the human head. It focuses on the inclusion of tissue conductivity inhomogeneity in a realistically-shaped head model, and investigates the impact of this inclusion on the potential distribution within the model. The results show that the impact, which has been neglected in realistic head models so far, is significant.
