High-definition transcranial direct current stimulation of the primary somatosensory cortex exerts a diffenrential effect on nociceptive and non-nociceptive inputs processing

Disentangling sensory-and motor-related EEG activities elicited in the context of rhythmic sensorimotor interactions

Disentangle rhythmic sensory-and motor-related brain activity in electroencephalographic signal is rendered difficult by the fact that both processes can be expected to elicit Steady-State Evoked-Potentials (SS-EPs) at the same frequencies. Previous …

Probing the involvement of the primary somatosensory cortex in pain perception using high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS)

Investigators have suggested that innocuous somatosensory input is processed serially from the thalamus to the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and then to other brain regions; whereas nociceptive input would project in parallel from the thalamus to …

Intra and interhemispheric modulation of motor and somatosensory cortices using cTBS: a TMS/EEG study

Methods We investigated the effect of cTBS delivered over M1 on the ipsilateral and contralateral M1 and primary somatosensory cortex (S1) using motor-evoked potentials (MEPs), somatosensory-evoked brain potentials (SEP) and TMS-evoked brain …

Neuronal dynamic of TMS induced MEPs: a combined TMS-EEG study

The recording of motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) elicited by single pulses of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) over the primary motor cortex (M1) is a widely used non-invasive technique to assess motor cortex excitability in humans. Recently, …

A new approach for single-trial detection of laser-evoked potentials and its application to pain prediction

Single-trial detection of evoked brain potentials is essential for many research topics in neural engineering and neuroscience. In present study, a novel approach, which combines common spatial pattern (CSP) and multiple linear regression (MLR), is …

Single-trial Detection of Visual Evoked Potentials by Common Spatial Patterns and Wavelet Filtering for Brain-computer Interface

Event-related potentials (ERPs) are widely used in brain-computer interface (BCI) systems as input signals conveying a subject’s intention. A fast and reliable single-trial ERP detection method can be used to develop a BCI system with both high speed …

Single-trial Laser-evoked Potentials Feature Extraction for Prediction of Pain Perception

Pain is a highly subjective experience, and the availability of an objective assessment of pain perception would be of great importance for both basic and clinical applications. The objective of the present study is to develop a novel approach to …

Effect of duty cycle in different frequency domains on SSVEP based BCI: a preliminary study

Compared with the well learned amplitude-frequency characteristic of Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP), the effect of duty cycle is still unclear. In this work, the influence of duty cycle on SSVEP response is investigated in differnt …

Using SSVEP based brain-computer interface to control functional electrical stimulation training system

In this work, a functional electrical stimulation (FES) training system using steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) based brain-computer interface (BCI) was designed to realize the control of upper limb movements. Subjects were required to …
