Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a noninvasive neuroimaging technique that measures the electromagnetic fields generated by the human brain. The main sources of these fields are considered to be the postsynaptic currents in the apical dendrites of the cortical pyramidal cells, 1 although action potentials also may be recorded. 2, 3 MEG offers an excellent temporal resolution in the range of submilliseconds, that allows even brain activity with high frequencies to be recorded. 4 MEG also offers good spatial resolution via magnetic source imaging (MSI). 5, 6 It is most sensitive to the currents that are tangential to the surface of the scalp and blind to magnetic fields produced by radial sources. 7, 8In clinical practice, MEG is used mostly for the localization of epileptogenic foci in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy undergoing surgery. 9, 10 MEG also has become popular for understanding the human brain in both adults and children. 11 During an MEG recording, the patient or subject sits comfortably in an armchair that is located inside a magnetically shielded room, which is specially designed to prevent the electromagnetic noise of the environment from overwhelming the weak neural electromagnetic fields. In several occasions, simultaneous high-density electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings are performed (Fig. 1). Recording also can be performed in a supine position when a patient is under sedation or needs to sleep. The magnetically shielded room is equipped with adjustable lighting and an audiovisual communication system that allows communication
