Abstract
This paper develops a novel method to reduce the influence of stimulus-induced artifacts in functional spinal cord imaging. The developed method employes a two-step procedure. The first step acquires artifact data, which contain artifacts but do not contain spinal cord evoked magnetic field (SCEF). The second step applies a method called common-mode subspace projection (CSP). The effectiveness of the developed method is validated using SCEF data measured from a healthy volunteer.
