New avenues for functional neuroimaging: ultra-high field MRI and OPM-MEG. [PDF]
Abstract Functional brain imaging technology has developed rapidly in recent years. On the one hand, high-field 7-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has excelled the limited spatial resolution of 3-Tesla MRI, allowing us to enter a new world of mesoscopic imaging from the macroscopic imaging of human brain functions.

Magnetoencephalography with optically pumped magnetometers (OPM-MEG): the next generation of functional neuroimaging. [PDF]
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) measures human brain function via assessment of the magnetic fields generated by electrical activity in neurons. Despite providing high-quality spatiotemporal maps of electrophysiological activity, current MEG instrumentation is limited by cumbersome field sensing technologies, resulting in major barriers to utility.
