Potential Field from an Active Nerve in an Inhomogeneous, Anisotropic Volume Conductor - The Forward Problem

This paper presents an analytic method for determining the potential distribution within an idealized cylindrical limb that contains an active nerve trunk. The limb also contains a major inhomogeneity (a bone) and skeletal muscle, both of which are assumed to be anisotropic.
