Abstract

This paper deals with the first step in the modeling of newe stimulation: the calculation of the potential field in a 3D volume conductor model of the nerve. surroundings and electrodes. Because of its time efficiency, a multigrid method was used to calculate the field. Compared to a Gauss-Seidel relaxation (overrelaxation factor = 1.7), a calculation time reduction of a factor 20 was obtained
