Abstract

Over the past 150 years the study of the electrical properties of various biological tissues has been undertaken by researchers from a wide variety of scientific backgrounds. This has, unfortunately, led to the existing range of confusing and misunderstood terminology/concepts. Some of the most important are presented and explained.
