Description for MEG-EEG Primer
Paperback. Num Pages: 344 pages. BIC Classification: MMJT1. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 254 x 178. .
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG) provide complementary views to the neurodynamics of healthy and diseased human brains. Both methods are totally noninvasive and can track with millisecond temporal resolution spontaneous brain activity, evoked responses to various sensory stimuli, as well as signals associated with the performance of motor, cognitive and affective tasks. MEG records the magnetic fields, and EEG the potentials associated with the same neuronal currents, which however are differentially weighted due to the physical and physiological differences between the methods. MEG is rather selective to activity in the walls of cortical folds, whereas EEG senses ... Read more

Reviews for MEG-EEG Primer
This Primer fulfills a gap in the human neurophysiology literature where no book exists dealing with MEG and EEG in equal terms. This is important since both methodologies are, in essence, complementary and jointly can be used to answer specific scientific questions with respect to a variety of brain functions. Special attention is paid to comparisons of findings obtained using ... Read more
