Type of article: Article

Summary

Recent developments of multichannel SQUID magnetometer systems enabled the authors to perform magnetoencephalography (MEG) as a means of non-invasive functional brain mapping in patients. Clinical applications of somatosensory, auditory and visual evoked magnetic fields are described. Localization errors of sources in the multimodal evoked responses were evaluated as low as 2 to 3 mm when related to cerebral structures. Further developments of clinical MEG systems are discussed.
