A trained neural network is used for estimating the number, positions or moments of one of more dipoles which are assumed as sources of the electromagnetic field distribution based upon an electromagnetic field distribution of a living body or an object. At least either one of the dipole number positions and moments, or more than two of their combination is referred to as dipole parameters.

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 13, 1994 and granted December 30, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended May 13, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 13, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
