Magnetogastrography

Magnetogastrography (MGG) is a non-invasive imaging technique used to study the electrical activity of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, particularly the stomach. It involves measuring the magnetic fields generated by the electrical activities of the cells in the stomach muscles. The technique is based on the principle that when cells in the stomach contract to facilitate digestion, they generate tiny magnetic fields due to the flow of electrical currents.
