<strong>fMRI</strong> – <strong>MEG</strong> (<strong>EEG</strong>) relationship<br />

<strong>fMRI</strong><br />

Generated by oxygenated<br />

hemoglobin in the blood<br />

Functional images are<br />

directly related to<br />

structural images<br />

No source model required<br />

High spatial resolution (but<br />

depends on vascularization)<br />

Low time resolution (limited<br />

by hemodynamic response)<br />

Resolution independent of<br />

source depth<br />

<strong>MEG</strong> (<strong>EEG</strong>)<br />

Generated by intracellular<br />

currents<br />

Functional images are not<br />

directly related to<br />

structural images<br />

Imaging depends on source<br />

<strong>and</strong> head models (<strong>and</strong><br />

conductivity, for <strong>EEG</strong>)<br />

Low spatial resolution<br />

(related to source type)<br />

High time resolution (better<br />

than 1 ms)<br />

Poor resolution for deep<br />

sources
