Summary
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) has emerged as an important tool in the study of mood disorders. Although electroencephalography (EEG) is much more widely utilized, largely due to its low cost and ease of use, MEG has the distinct advantage of enabling accurate localization of brain structures. Although a full discussion of the methodology of MEG is beyond the scope of this brief chapter, we will present a brief overview of the technique and refer the reader to several excellent volumes (1–3) for more information.
