Summary "In the fifty years since magnetoencephalography (MEG) was invented, various clinical and research applications of it have been attempted with considerable success. This is most notable in the area of epilepsy and pre-surgical functioning mapping. However, the best way to apply MEG and interpret the findings still remains conjectural. As such, this book assesses the new clinical and research applications of MEG, especially for markers of neuropsychiatric and other disorders. It also evaluates the new instruments and analytic procedures that have been recently developed. Ultimately, the book may serve as a standard of clinical practice and as a source of ideas for expanding the applications of MEG"-- Provided by publisher
