Weighting function based on published field gradient measurements. a) Tissue receiving 20% of the shock received the highest weighting (1) while tissue receiving 10% and 100% of the shock received fixed weightings of 0.1. The cumulative weighting distribution (b) demonstrates that while approximately 80% of the tissue receives at least 24% of the full shock strength, only 20% of the tissue receives 60% of the full shock strength.
