Abstract:Motor imagery (MI) refers to the mental simulation of an action without any overt movement. While numerous transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies provided evidence for a modulation of corticospinal excitability and intracortical inhibition during MI, the neural signature within the primary motor cortex is not clearly established. In the current study, we used directional TMS to probe the modulation of the excitability of early and late indirect-waves (I-waves) generating pathways during MI. Corticospi… Show more
