Abstract

In an in-vivo signal source detection method, three electrodes are arranged on the circumference of a surface of an living body to surround multiple muscle fibers; a first voltage Vgenerated when a first external resistor is connected to between each electrode and a ground potential and a second voltage V'generated when a second external resistor is connected to between each electrode and the ground potential; and a ratio V/V′is calculated from the first voltage Vand the second voltage V′, and the position of a signal source in the living body is detected based on three ratios V/V′.
