Abstract:
Brain-computer interface(BCI)devices are crucial tools for neural stimulation and recording,offering broad prospects in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders.Furthermore,magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)is an effective and non-invasive technique for capturing whole-brain signals,providing detailed information on brain structures and activation patterns.Integrating the neural stimulation/recording capabilities of BCI devices with the non-invasive detection function of MRI is considered highly significant for brain function analysis.However,this combination imposes specific requirements on the magnetic and electronic performance of neural interface devices.The interaction between BCI devices and MRI is initially explored.Subsequently,potential safety risks arising from their combination are summarized and organized.Starting from the source of these hazards,such as the metallic electrodes and wires of BCI devices,the issues are analyzed,and current research countermeasures are summarized.In conclusion,the regulatory oversight of BCI's magnetic resonance safety is briefly discussed,and suggestions for enhancing the magnetic resonance compatibility of related BCI devices are proposed.
