Abstract:
:Positron emission tomography (PET) during focal repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has emerged as a promising approach to study cortical connectivity in awake humans. However, the noise caused by the discharging magnetic coil might have confounding effects on the rTMS-related cortical activation pattern. In twelve healthy volunteers, 18-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (18FDG) PET was employed to visualize the functional activation of the primary auditory cortex (PAC) during 2 Hz rTMS of the left primary sensorimotor hand area. Magnetic stimuli (1800) were applied at an intensity of 140% of motor resting threshold during the uptake period of 18FDG. Though all subjects wore earplugs, rTMS-related noise induced a consistent bilateral increase of regional glucose utilization in the PAC (P < 0.05, corrected). Thus, rTMS-related acoustic input needs to be taken into account in combined rTMS/PET studies.
