Abstract
An apparatus includes the position determining members for determining the relative position between the reference frame and the head utilizing at least the teeth or external acoustic meatuses and the nose of the head, and the placement members for placing the magnetic field generating elements for MEG and the markers for MRI measurement at the predetermined reference positions on the head by operating the positioning mechanism movably provided on the reference frame. Thus, the reference points for MRI measurement and MEG can be precisely set at the same position with relatively simple operation.
