Background:

High spatial and temporal resolution is crucial for dynamic brain source imaging.
Electroencephalography (EEG) source imaging offers high temporal resolution but requires constraints for accurate source reconstruction.
Existing methods face challenges in achieving optimal spatial and temporal accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a novel dynamic source imaging algorithm for EEG with enhanced spatial and temporal resolution.
To introduce spatio-temporal constraints to improve the identifiability of neural sources in underdetermined inverse problems.
To evaluate the performance of the proposed method against state-of-the-art algorithms.

Main Methods:

A dynamic source imaging algorithm incorporating temporal evolution of neural activity into regularization.
Application of spatial regularization constraints (L1 and L2 norms) in a transformed domain using spatial gradient and Laplacian transforms.
Quantitative evaluation using synthetic datasets and validation on a real auditory event-related potential (ERP) dataset.

Main Results:

The proposed method demonstrated superior spatial and temporal reconstruction accuracy compared to STRAPS, sLORETA, SBL, dSPM, and MxNE.
Performance was evaluated across various parameters including source extent, number of sources, correlation, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
Accurate reconstruction of brain source time series and locations was achieved on a real auditory ERP dataset.

Conclusions:

The novel method effectively integrates transformed spatial and temporal constraints for improved EEG source imaging.
The proposed algorithm outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in estimating source distribution and time courses.
This approach advances the capability of non-invasive neuroimaging for understanding brain dynamics.
