Abstract: The cerebral activation during bicycle movements was investigated by oxygen-15-labelled H2O positron emission tomography (PET) in seven healthy human subjects. Compared to rest active bicycling significantly activated sites bilaterally in the primary sensory cortex, primary motor cortex (M1) and supplementary motor cortex (SMA) as well as the anterior part of cerebellum. Comparing passive bicycling movements with rest, an almost equal activation was observed. Subtracting passive from active bicycle movements, … Show more

“…As a result there are few comparison results available for validating the EEG trends identified here. [17] used PET scanning to monitor subjects while cycling and found a significant activation of the primary motor cortex during rhythmic cycling motion, consistent with the results here.…”

“…Indeed, pedaling has been shown to induce reciprocating muscle activity even in patients with severe hemiparesis (Fujiwara et al 2003). This improvement may be explained by the ability of active pedaling to activate bilateral sensorimotor as well as supplementary motor cortices (Christensen et al 2000). Overall, pedaling may improve lower extremity motor function and be beneficial in retraining gait (Fujiwara et al 2005).…”

“…In order to examine the cortical contributions to bipedal movements, 7 healthy adult subjects performing bicycling movements were scanned using oxygen-15 PET [18] . Compared to rest, active bicycling stimulated sites bilaterally in primary sensory and motor cortices along with the SMA and anterior cerebellum.…”

“…Lately, experiments using new imaging and neurophysiologic techniques such as functional MRI (fMRI), single photon computed tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) have re-examined various aspects of motor control and motor learning [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] . These studies are both confi rming and refuting long-held ideas about movement automaticity.…”
