EEG (electroencephalography) is the best choice for measuring the electrical activity of the brain as it is noninvasive and provides real-time data. The other options (fMRI, MEG, and PET) are more suited for measuring changes in brain activity over time or identifying locations of brain activity, rather than measuring electrical output in a specific patient.
