Magnetoencephalography with optically pumped magnetometers (OPM-MEG): the next generation of functional neuroimaging

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) allows noninvasive electrophysiological imaging of human brain activity. However, current MEG technology has significant limitations.Optically pumped magnetometers (OPM)-MEG is a new type of MEG instrumentation, promising several advantages compared with conventional scanners: higher signal sensitivity, better spatial resolution, more uniform coverage, lifespan compliance, free movement of participants during scanning, and lower system complexity.We describe and and technology is of conventional human imaging and new of Magnetoencephalography (MEG) human brain of of electrophysiological current MEG is a new of MEG technology is of pumped magnetometers has current of promising and…
