A method for mapping higher brain function comprises an fMRI mapping step Si to map a brain function of the subject TP by fMRI, a head portion structural image acquisition step S 3 to acquire a head portion structural image IMGs by an MRI system in a state that a headgear HC having a marker is mounted on the head portion of the subject TP, a three-dimensional image combining step S 4 to create a three-dimensionally combined image IMGfs by combining the head portion structural image IMGs and the brain functional image IMGf obtained by the fMRI mapping step S 1 , an optical probe mounting step S 5 to specify positions on the headgear HC where optical probes PR 1 , PR 2 are mounted based on the three-dimensionally combined image IMGfs and to mount the optical probes PR 1 , PR 2 at the specified positions and an NIRS measuring step S 6 to conduct the NIRS by a NIRS method in a state that the headgear HC loaded with the optical probes PR 1 , PR 2 is mounted on the head portion of the subject TP.
