Exponential functions of the percentage of the maximum current density magnitude on the surface of the cortex of each model, relative to the healthy head model, as a function of distance into the brain model for each evaluation line

Evaluation line-coil position Exponential trend line
Center line-MS y = 139.54e−0.0655x
Caudal line-MS y = 138.74e−0.0628x
Rostral line-MS y = 128.1e−0.0458x
Dorsal line-MS y = 137.42e−0.0631x
Ventral line- MS y = 112.07e−0.0225x
Center line -DLPC y = 133.5e−0.0492x
Caudal line-DLPC y = 140.92e−0.0584x
Rostral line-DLPC y = 131.87e−0.0531x
Dorsal line-DLPC y = 135.69e−0.054x
Ventral line- DLPC y = 145.73e−0.0542x

Note that cortex starts at approximately 6 mm, dependent upon evaluation line
