Representative subject result. A: Averaged auditory evoked magnetic fields (30 Hz low-pass filtered) of one representative subject. The waveforms exhibit clear N1m responses peaking at the latency of 170 msec. B: Magnetic contour maps and estimated single dipoles at the latency of the maximal N1m response are illustrated together with skin and brain modelled from the individual MRI. Red and blue contour lines represent outbound and inbound flows of magnetic fields from and to the brain. The contour maps show clear dipolar patterns above the left and right auditory cortices. The spheres and barrels in the brain indicate the locations and orientations of single dipoles in left (green) and right (red) hemispheres. The larger N1m source strength in the left hemisphere is represented by the larger dipole size.
