NEURO PRAX MR*

fMRI-compatible full-band DC-EEG biofeedback system

NEURO PRAX® MR systems measures physiological activity such as EEG, EMG, and EP signals simultaneously and synchronously for all channels. Unique amplifier technology captures EEG activities from infraslow (0 - 0.3 Hz) to ultrafast (80 - 1,200 Hz) frequencies.

The high dynamic range of our amplifiers and the integrated online correction of gradient and pulse artifacts make the NEURO PRAX® MR particularly suitable for measuring EEG, ECG, EMG, or GSR during functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI).

The full-band MR-compatible DC-EEG provide a wide range of optional software-based functions such as online correction of artifacts, topographical analyses, spectral and amplitude mapping, and online averaging. The NEURO PRAX® MR 8 allows to record the galvanic skin response (GSR) and the EMG.

The NEURO PRAX® MR is a biofeedback device according to the FDA Regulation Number 882.5050. It supports researchers to learn to self-regulate their brain activity (EEG biofeedback). It is intended to be used for EEG biofeedback with the slow cortical potentials (SCP) protocol.
