Complex motor imagery in elite female ice hockey players: a cortical arena of imagination revealed by magnetoencephalography [PDF]
Motor imagery (MI), or “visualization,” as practiced by elite athletes to improve performance, provides a model of how covert thought—imagination—can affect subsequent behavior. In this exploratory magnetoencephalography (MEG) study, we aimed to identify

Basal ganglia activation localized in MEG using a reward task
The basal ganglia are a crucial component of neural networks underlying reward response and many other behaviors. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) can be used to non-invasively study the spatiotemporal dynamics of activity in neural networks.

Discrimination of finger movements by magnetomyography with optically pumped magnetometers
Optically pumped magnetometers (OPM) are quantum sensors that offer new possibilities to measure biomagnetic signals. Compared to the current standard surface electromyography (EMG), in magnetomyography (MMG), OPM sensors offer the advantage of ...

Testing the generalization of neural representations
Multivariate analysis methods are widely used in neuroscience to investigate the presence and structure of neural representations. Representational similarities across time or contexts are often investigated using pattern generalization, e.g. by training

Beta and gamma oscillations index cognitive interference effects across a distributed motor network
The planning and execution of an efficient motor plan is essential to everyday cognitive function, and relies on oscillatory neural responses in both the beta (14–30 Hz) and gamma (>30 Hz) bands.

Attention modulates the gating of primary somatosensory oscillations
Sensory gating (SG) is a well-studied phenomenon in which neural responses are reduced to identical stimuli presented in succession, and is thought to represent the functional inhibition of primary sensory information that is redundant in nature.

Magnetoencephalography in Epilepsy [PDF]
Summary: Magnetoencephalography (MEG)—also known as magnetic source imaging when combined with magnetic resonance imaging—has developed to the point that it has now entered routine clinical application. Epilepsy MEG studies show that it can accurately localize spike sources—both ictal and interictal—as compared to both direct (intracranial EEG) and ...

Functional brain markers that can inform research on brain abnormalities, and especially those ready to facilitate clinical work on such abnormalities, will need to show not only considerable sensitivity and specificity but enough consistency with ...

Magnetoencephalography and Language
This article provides an overview of research that uses magnetoencephalography to understand the brain basis of human language. The cognitive processes and brain networks that have been implicated in written and spoken language comprehension and production are discussed in relation to different methodologies: we review event-related brain responses ...
