6.3 eeg as a tool for psychosis research: challenges, pitfalls and new opportunities

DiscussionSimultaneous EEG-fMRI offers the best from both modalities, that is high temporal and high spatial resolution, but here, too, methodological challenges have to be addressed. Finally, the development of new noninvasive tools for brain stimulation such as transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) with the opportunity of frequency-specific modulation of neuronal oscillations ( “entrainment”) for both brain research and therapy makes detailed information about disturbed oscillations patterns in psychosis even more relevant.
