EEG/MEG source imaging using fMRI informed time-variant constraints.

ABSTRACT: Multimodal functional neuroimaging by combining functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) or magnetoencephalography (MEG) is able to provide high spatiotemporal resolution mapping of brain activity. However, the accuracy of fMRI-constrained EEG/MEG source imaging may be degraded by potential spatial mismatches between the locations of fMRI activation and electrical source activities. To address this problem, we propose a novel fMRI informed time-variant constraint (FITC) method. The weights in FITC are determined by combining the fMRI activities and electrical source activities in a time-variant manner to reduce the impact of the fMRI extra sources. The fMRI weights are modified using cross-talk matrix and normalized partial area under the curve to reduc
