Abstract
A noninvasive biomagnetic sensor system that uses magnetic toroids for both neural stimulation and detection is described. It is shown that analytical signals obtained by direct magnetic detection (no signal av eraging) compare favorably with electrical monitoring and that dose-re sponse curves for local anesthetics correlate well between the two met hods. Neural lifetimes are significantly extended when the noninvasive biomagnetic sensing system is used.
