Abstract :
A new 19 channel SQUID magnetometer system is designed and has been being developed for research use in order to measure the neuromagnetic fields originating from cortices of human brain. This is the total hardware system consisting of 19 SQUID sensors with detecting coils, readout electronics, a liquid helium dewar, a gantry and an electromagnetically shielded room
