Concurrent electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can be performed without compromising image quality. Proper equipment selection and shielding eliminate noise artifacts, enabling high-quality simultaneous brain imaging.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroimaging
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Cognitive Neuroscience

Background:

  • Simultaneous electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are valuable for brain research.
  • EEG equipment can introduce artifacts and noise, degrading fMRI data quality.
  • Understanding component-specific artifact contributions is crucial for optimizing concurrent recordings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of individual EEG recording components on fMRI echo-planar imaging (EPI) quality.
  • To quantify artifact levels and compare them to anatomical measures.
  • To provide a framework for selecting suitable EEG equipment for MR environments.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic evaluation of artifact generation by individual EEG recording components.

  • Measurement of artifact magnitude and comparison with scalp-cortex distances.
  • Identification and characterization of noise originating from EEG equipment.

    • Main Results:

    • Specific EEG components were identified as sources of fMRI artifacts.
    • The noise generated by EEG equipment was characterized as coherent noise.
    • Appropriate shielding effectively eliminated noise artifacts from the EEG recording equipment.

    Conclusions:

    • Concurrent EEG and fMRI can be achieved with minimal compromise to image quality through careful equipment selection.
    • Shielding EEG equipment is essential for mitigating noise artifacts.
    • The study offers a methodology for researchers to test and select appropriate EEG equipment for MR scanners.
