Effects of movement and movement imagery on somatosensory evoked magnetic fields following posterior tibial nerve stimulation

We examined the “gating” effects caused by active and passive movements of toes and by “movement imagery” (mental moving of the toe without actual movements) on somatosensory evoked magnetic fields (SEFs) following stimulation of the posterior tibial nerve in normal subjects. Active and passive move...

Description
Summary:We examined the “gating” effects caused by active and passive movements of toes and by “movement imagery” (mental moving of the toe without actual movements) on somatosensory evoked magnetic fields (SEFs) following stimulation of the posterior tibial nerve in normal subjects. Active and passive movements significantly attenuated the short- and middle-latency cortical components ( P
