Cortical sources of human movement-related potentials (i.e. unilateral finger extension) were modeled using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMR) data as a constraint of a linear inverse source estimation from highly sampled (128 channels) EEG data. Remarkably, this estimation was performed within realistic subject's MR-constructed head models by boundary element techniques. An appropriate figure of merit served to set the optimal amount of fMR constraints. With respect to standard linear inverse source estimates, fMR-constrained ones presented increased spatial detail and provided a more reliable timing of activation in bilateral sensorimotor cortical regions of interest.
