by Dr. Tracy Warbrick Application Specialist EEG-fMRI (Brain Products) The BrainCap MR has been the preferred choice for simultaneous EEG-fMRI research for more than a decade, but advances in fMRI technology mean that it needs an update. We have made some changes to the standard BrainCap MR cable lengths to improve the user experience and…
by Dr. Tracy Warbrick Application Specialist EEG-fMRI (Brain Products) We strive to keep our products up to date and we are excited to announce some news that will bring our conditions for use in line with current trends in fMRI. We have updated the MRI sequence conditions for our BrainAmp MR systems1 and BrainCap MR.…
by Dr. Tracy Warbrick Application Specialist EEG-fMRI (Brain Products) You may not be surprised to learn that we have been working on a sponge-based electrode system for simultaneous EEG-fMRI and we are delighted to announce that our R-Net MR will be available soon. The R-Net MR is based on the same principles as the regular…
by Dr. Tracy Warbrick Application Specialist EEG-fMRI (Brain Products) In this issue of our Press Release we have lots of exciting EEG-fMRI news for you, but sometimes it’s also good to go back to basics. We often receive questions from researchers regarding the quality of their data or the success of artifact handling procedures. Frequently,…
by Dr. Tracy Warbrick Application Specialist EEG-fMRI (Brain Products) We are very proud that our BrainAmp MR series of amplifiers is the gold standard for combined EEG-fMRI measurements. While the BrainAmps themselves continue to be as robust and reliable as ever, we decided that the user manual was in need of an update. We are…
