Bittium exhibits its innovative products and solutions for neuroscience at the Second Moscow International Conference

Oulu, Finland, May 24, 2017 – Bittium exhibits its innovative products and solutions for neurology at the Second Moscow International Conference "Non-invasive brain stimulation and functional brain mapping” on May 25th – 27th in Moscow, Russia. The main theme of the event is non-invasive brain stimulation methods in clinical practice and basic research. Bittium has over 10 years of experience with applications for neurophysiology during which the company has developed, for example, an electroencephalography (EEG) solution for TMS-EEG (EEG used during Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) and fMRI-EEG (EEG used during Magnetic Resonance Imaging) applications. The products and solutions presented are NeurOne monitoring solution for neuroscience measurements and BrainStatus compact EEG amplifier.

At the conference Bittium will have a speaking slot in Section C: “How can we improve results of NIBS (Non-invasive Brain Stimulation)?” on day one of the event. The presentation discusses about the Technical aspects of Real-time EEG triggered TMS stimulation. Bittium’s speaker is Simo-Pekka Simonaho, PhD., specialist neuroscience.

Products presented at the conference:

• NeurOne is one of the most accurate and quickest EEG measuring devices in the world designed for clinical and research use. NeurOne system enables fully synchronized group measuring of up to 30 persons simultaneously for example in different types of psychological studies. The solution is optimized for use with transcranial magnetic stimulators (TMS-EEG), with optional possibility to use it during magnetic resonance imaging procedures (fMRI-EEG).
• BrainStatus is a wireless compact EEG amplifier, which is used together with a disposable easy and quick to wear BrainStatus electrode headband for example to diagnose epileptic seizures and brain stroke. BrainStatus enables quick measurement in field conditions as well as in hospitals, thus making the treatment process of the patient faster.
