Background:

  • Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an emerging, noninvasive functional neuroimaging technique.
  • It is comparable to electroencephalography (EEG) in its ability to measure brain activity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the applications of MEG in localizing neurological activity.
  • To assess the potential of MEG in epilepsy research and other neurological conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Localization of evoked responses and epileptiform discharges.
  • Study of patients with psychiatric illnesses, cerebrovascular accidents, and migraine.

Main Results:

  • MEG has been utilized for source localization of various brain activities.
