Analysing data

There are several options for analysing MEG and EEG data from the Neuromag machine at the CBU:

Neuromag Software

The [http://imaging.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/meg/NeuromagSoftware Neuromag software] is part of the [http://www.elekta.com/healthcare_international_elekta_neuromag.php Elekta Neuromag MEG system]. You can get a general idea about the analysis pathway from the [attachment:MEGAnalysisLectureJan07CBU.pdf CBU introductory lecture into MEG analysis] (the slides do not include the live software demos given at the lecture).

MaxFilter

[http://imaging.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/meg/Maxfilter MaxFilter] is a pre-processing tool for MEG data, in order to remove noise sources likely to originate from outside the sensor array.

More info on pre-processing (e.g. trigger coding)
