The advent of large-array superconducting biomagnetometer systems, including sophisticated operating and data processing electronics, has enabled practical patient studies evaluating the potential contribution of magnetoencephalography to clinical medicine. The superimposition of sources localized magnetically onto anatomic images, referred to as magnetic source imaging, has allowed physicians to conduct this evaluation in the content of their customary medical practice. This article summarizes the basic technology of magnetoencephalography and magnetic source imaging and includes brief descriptions of the various applications that are being studied with these new sensor systems, some of which are discussed in subsequent articles.
大型阵列超导生物磁强计系统的出现，包括精密的操作和数据处理电子设备，使得开展实际的患者研究成为可能，这些研究用于评估脑磁图在临床医学中的潜在作用。将通过磁场定位的源叠加到解剖图像上，即所谓的磁源成像，使医生能够在其常规医疗实践中进行这种评估。本文总结了脑磁图和磁源成像的基本技术，并简要介绍了正在使用这些新传感器系统进行研究的各种应用，其中一些将在后续文章中讨论。
