 Introduction to MEG/EEG
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is completely noninvasive, non-hazardous technology for functional brain mapping, providing spatial discremination of 2 mm and an excellent temporal resolution on the order of 1 ms, localizing and characterizing the electrical activity of the central nervous system by measuring the associated magnetic fields emanating from the brain.
Every current generates a magnetic field according to the right hand rule of physics.
These magnetic measurements on the brain (MEG), measurements on the magnetic field of the heart (MCG), and measurements on the magnetic field of the fetal (fMEG) are carried out at CTF Systems Inc.

 An Inverse Source Problem for Maxwell's Equations in Magnetoencephalography
An Inverse Source Problem for Maxwell's Equations in Magnetoencephalography: SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics Vol.
Consider an inverse source problem for Maxwell's equations which arises in determining locations of epileptic foci in the living human brain.
The method and results are expected to find applications particularly in magnetoencephalography.

Magnetoencephalography and Magnetic Source Imaging: Presurgical Localization of Epileptic Lesions and Presurgical Functional Mapping
This Assessment examines the available evidence to determine whether magnetoencephalography (MEG) and/or magnetic source imaging (MSI) provide additional diagnostic information that improves the management and outcomes of patients who are being evaluated for neurosurgical treatment in two main clinical uses.
TEC Assessments should not be construed to suggest that the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program or the TEC Program recommends, advocates, requires, encourages, or discourages any particular treatment, procedure, or service; any particular course of treatment, procedure, or service; or the payment or non-payment of the technology or technologies evaluated.

Magnetic measurements of brain activity could be free from noise in the future thanks to a new helmet-like device developed by medical physicists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the US.
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is the only technique that can directly measure neuronal activity in the brain, but it is plagued by background noise that interferes with signals from the brain itself.
The new helmet could provide much more accurate information on brain function (P Volegov et al.
