During the last decades, researchers aimed to develop sensitive neuroimaging techniques that attempt to provide the highest spatial and temporal resolution. As each condition requires specific technical characteristics, one of the most effective ways to reach the goal is to combine different neuroimaging methods.
Electroencephalography (EEG) is often combined with other techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and transcranial Electrical Stimulation (tES), to study the brain functions or changes from a temporal and spatial perspective, especially when combined with fMRI for the latter. EEG combined with other techniques might improve the understanding of the brain functionality and can be used as potential treatment monitoring, for example when applied to non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS). Furthermore, EEG is used for diagnostic purposes and when coupled with suitable and advanced mathematical procedures EEG can provide markers for neurodegenerative diseases and facilitate diagnosis.
In this Research Topic, we aim to expand the current knowledge on EEG combined with other techniques for both research and diagnostic purposes. We welcome contributions in the form of Original Research, Reviews, and Methods articles showcasing novel features, improvements of methods, or innovative approaches related to EEG-combined techniques.
This article collection will include, but is not limited to, novel methods and applications of novel methods to combined techniques, such as:
• EEG-fMRI;
• MEG-EEG;
• PET-MR-EEG;
• EEG-based BCI;
• EEG-TMS;
• EEG-tES;
• fNIRS-EEG;
• EEG-eye tracking.
