Abstract

Objective The simulated CSF and brain were set up. The aim of this project is to use them to study characteristic of real human brain in laboratory condition.Method Edible gelatine was used to simulate the brain. A concentration of 6g/100ml gelatine had physical characteristics similar to real brain. A series of different salt jelly concentrations were tested. Results The frequency and temperature characteristic of simulated CSF conductivity were measured at room temperature, body temperature and above the body temperature. Conclusion Kinds of direct comparisons of the results of mathematical calculations with experimental results is done using tangential and radial dipoles insert into the simulated SCF and simulated brain, to check on the validity of the parameters of simulated brain.
