Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic field of a nerve impulse: first measurements
TL;DR: The magnetic field of the action potential from an isolated frog sciatic nerve was measured by a SQUID magnetometer with a novel room-temperature pickup coil.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Estimate of the Steady Magnetic Field Strength Required to Influence Nerve Conduction
John P. Wikswo,J. P. Barach +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the minimum magnetic field required to produce observable effects is quite large, and for the best case, the rield required for a 10 percent reduction in conductivity is roughly 24 T.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possible sources of new information in the magnetocardiogram.
John P. Wikswo,J. P. Barach +1 more
TL;DR: A hypothetical example of cardiac activation departing from the conventional uniform double-layer model is presented to indicate that electrically silent sources cannot be ruled out a priori without careful magnetic measurements.

Method and apparatus for measuring magnetic fields and electrical currents in biological and other systems
J. P. Barach,John P. Wikswo +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method and apparatus for measuring magnetic fields and electric current flow in biological systems and other systems employing a room temperature pick-up probe connected to a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experiments on the magnetic field of nerve action potentials
TL;DR: In this paper, the magnetic field associated with the propagating action potential in a frog sciatic nerve was measured by a system utilizing a SQUID magnetometer, signal averaging, and a novel ferrite core toroidal transformer.
