About MEG
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that can help neurologists and neurosurgeons evaluate and map brain activity before surgery. MEG offers a way to localize brain activity with a high spatial and temporal resolution and represents a significant advance in the care of patients with brain tumors or severe epilepsy. A MEG scan is performed as an outpatient procedure.
See the MCW MEG Program website for more detailed information on the MEG system, its physical significance and application.
MEG system
Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin are the first in Wisconsin to offer MEG in a clinical (patient care) setting. In addition to clinical uses for neurosurgical planning, Froedtert & the Medical College conduct research studies using MEG to further develop this technology.
See Equipment for further information on the Instrumentation in the Building.
