Results from a new hybrid MEG-MRI system, working at 8.9mT without prepolariztion pulses, are presented. When scaled to a full size system, suitable for human imaging, they give indications that this approach allows faster imaging and better spatial resolution if compared to other existing devices based on SQUID parallel imaging in the kHz range and prepolarization pulses.
