Due to the complex and complicated system as the human brain is, it is inconceivable that information contained in one modality (one physiological parameter) might absolutely and meaningfully describe all of the aspects of this system. For that reason in recent time there is an attempt to employ the intergration of analysis using diverse modalities with each other and so achieve better and complex insight into the whole system leading to comprehension of the human brain functioning.

Keywords: multimodal neuroimaging, structural and functional neuroimaging, tractography, electroencephalography, epilepsy, neurodegenerative disorders, brain tumors, neurosurgery
