Assessing dynamic brain activity during verbal associative learning using MEG/fMRI co-processing by Sangeeta Nair, Jerzy P. Szaflarski, Yingying Wang, Diana Pizarro, Jeffrey F. Killen, Jane B. Allendorfer

“…Background: The abilities of individual neuroimaging methods to resolve spatial and temporal contributions of brain regions during cognitive processes are limited. Co-processing of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) may overcome some of the limitations by utilizing Multiple Sparse Priors (MSP) in a Bayesian framework that takes advantage of the temporal resolution of MEG and spatial resolution of fMRI. …”
