On the clinical side, MEG has been typically indicated for the pre-surgical work-up of severe, drug-resistant epilepsy and the functional pre-surgical mapping of brain tumors. However great potential exists to use MEG to investigate other neurological syndromes and neuropsychiatric disorders (e.g., stroke, dementia, movement disorders, depression, etc.). 3, record 1, English, - magnetoencephalography

Les techniques d'électrophysiologie cognitive présentent l'avantage de pouvoir suivre la chronologie des opérations mentales associées aux activations corticales sous-jacentes. Cet accès privilégié à la dynamique cérébrale, quasiment en temps réel, est apparu avec l'électroencéphalographie (EEG) et est désormais optimisé avec la magnétoencéphalographie (MEG). Cette technique, grâce à l'enregistrement de champs magnétiques cérébraux, permet d'explorer l'activité cérébrale liée aux processus cognitifs avec une meilleure résolution spatiale que celle de l'EEG. 4, record 1, French, - magn%C3%A9toenc%C3%A9phalographie
