Zusammenfassung
To identify the possibly divergent impact on early and late high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) in human somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs), we have studied motor interference effects on the HFOs, and the relevance of such effects for the controversy concerning their origins. While the late HFO is thought to be generated in the somatosensory cortex, there is an ongoing discussion whether the early burst is of cortical or subcortical origin. Movements of the index finger were performed in parallel with median nerve SEP recordings. The intracortically generated N20-SEP and the late HFO were attenuated by the mo…
