Contemporary brain research progresses along two main lines: the microlevel approach explores single neurons and subcellular elements, while macrolevel studies focus on more complex cerebral functions, including behavior. This review presents results obtained mainly in our laboratory by means of an intermediate method, magnetoencephalography (MEG), which reflects cortical activity of neuronal populations at the level fo cytoarchitectonic areas. Because it is completely noninvasive, MEG can be used to study brain functions that are characteristically human.
微观层面的方法探索单个神经元和亚细胞成分,而宏观层面的研究则聚焦于更复杂的脑功能,包括行为。本综述展示了主要在我们实验室通过一种中间方法——脑磁图(MEG)获得的结果,该方法在细胞构筑区域水平上反映神经元群体的皮质活动。由于脑磁图完全无创,它可用于研究典型的人类脑功能。
