title: Combined MEG and pT-TMS study in Parkinson's disease.
abstract: Magnetoencephalographic (MEG) recordings of the brain in Parkinson's disease were obtained in order to look for possible effect of pico-Tesla transcranial magnetic stimulation (pT-TMS). We found a significant effect of an increase of frequencies in the range of 2-7 Hz across subjects. In addition, we observed the mean peak frequency difference within the 2-7 Hz band towards frequencies of less or equal to those frequencies of the alpha frequency range (8-13 Hz).
