Accuracy of image reconstruction with a 120 contact electrode array, as determined in simulations. A) 15 M-elements forward mesh, B) comprising anatomically accurate material properties: gray matter (transparent gray), white matter (blue), and CSF (red), and C) a 100 k hexahedral elements inverse mesh, were used to access the accuracy. D) Localization error was calculated throughout the volume at 1000 locations in simulation. A superior-lateral (left) and left sagittal (right) view is shown of the mesh with rasterization planes through the mesh color-coded according to the localization error determined by difference between real and reconstructed perturbation location (1% conductivity change, 0.5 mm diameter). The transverse plane in the left subplot is positioned 3 mm below vertex of the brain. The resolution in most of the neocortex is < 250 μm, and is < 500 μm throughout most of the brain (with the exclusion of structures adjacent to the skull-base and ventricles).
