Dynamic imaging of coherent sources: studying neural interactions in the human brain

…, A Schnitzler, R Salmelin - Proceedings of the …, 2001 - National Acad Sciences
Functional connectivity between cortical areas may appear as correlated time behavior of
neural activity. It has been suggested that merging of separate features into a single percept (“…

Spatiotemporal characteristics of sensorimotor neuromagnetic rhythms related to thumb movement

R Salmelin, R Hari - Neuroscience, 1994 - Elsevier
To assess the spatial extent and temporal behavior of rolandic rhythms we recorded
neuromagnetic signals from four healthy subjects with a 24-channel magnetometer. The subjects …

Human cortical oscillations: a neuromagnetic view through the skull

R Hari, R Salmelin - Trends in neurosciences, 1997 - cell.com
The mammalian cerebral cortex generates a variety of rhythmic oscillations, detectable
directly from the cortex or the scalp. Recent non-invasive recordings from intact humans, by …

Cortical control of human motoneuron firing during isometric contraction

…, K Portin, M Kajola, R Salmelin… - Journal of …, 1997 - journals.physiology.org
Riitta Salmelin … Salenius, Stephan, Karin Portin, Matti Kajola, Riitta Salmelin, and Riitta
Hari. Cortical control of human motoneuron firing during isometric contraction. J. …

Functional segregation of movement-related rhythmic activity in the human brain

R Salmelin, M Hámáaláinen, M Kajola, R Hari - Neuroimage, 1995 - Elsevier
Multiple synaptic interconnections in the human brain support concerted rhythmic activity of
a large number of cortical neurons, typically close to 10 and 20 Hz. Our present …

[BOOK][B] MEG: An introduction to methods

P Hansen, M Kringelbach, R Salmelin - 2010 - books.google.com
Magnetoencephalography (MEG) is an exciting brain imaging technology that allows real-time
tracking of neural activity, making it an invaluable tool for advancing our understanding of …

Dynamics of letter string perception in the human occipitotemporal cortex

…, P Helenius, PC Hansen, PL Cornelissen, R Salmelin - Brain, 1999 - academic.oup.com
The inferior occipitotemporal brain areas, especially in the left hemisphere, have been
shown to be involved in the processing of written words and letter strings. This processing …

Involvement of primary motor cortex in motor imagery: a neuromagnetic study

A Schnitzler, S Salenius, R Salmelin, V Jousmäki… - Neuroimage, 1997 - Elsevier
Functional brain imaging studies have indicated that several cortical and subcortical areas
active during actual motor performance are also active during imagination or mental …

Impaired visual word processing in dyslexia revealed with magnetoencephalography

R Salmelin, P Kiesilä, K Uutela… - Annals of Neurology …, 1996 - Wiley Online Library
Dyslexia is most often atributed to phonological impairments, manifested in abnormal
activation of the left temporal and temporoparietal cortex in response to auditorily presented …

Magnetoencephalographic cortical rhythms

R Hari, R Salmelin, JP Mäkelä, S Salenius… - International journal of …, 1997 - Elsevier
We have characterized the magnetic 10- and 20-Hz rhythms recorded with a whole-scalp
neuromagnetometer during different conditions. Sources of the posterior 10-Hz (alpha) rhythm …
