Abstract :
We propose a new method of the inverse problem to evaluate the dynamics of neural or muscular activity using the Pompeiu problem, which is the extended concept of Radon transformation. But the objectives are not static, but dynamic medical imaging obtained by scanning the SQUID sensors over the specimen nondestructively.
