Longitudinal consistency of source-space spectral power and functional connectivity using different magnetoencephalography recording systems

Abstract Longitudinal analyses of magnetoencephalography (MEG) data are essential for a full understanding of the pathophysiology of brain diseases and the development of brain activity over time. However, time-dependent factors, such as the recording environment and the type of MEG recording system...
