Electrocorticograms (ECoG) were recorded using subdural grid electrodes in forearm sensorimotor cortex of six human subjects. The subjects performed three visuomotor tasks, tracking a moving visual target with a joystick-controlled cursor; threading pieces of tubing; and pinching the fingers sequentially against the thumb. Control conditions were resting and active wrist extension. ECoGs were recorded at 14 sites in hand- and arm-sensorimotor area, functionally identified with electrical stimulation. For each behavior we computed spectral power of ECoG in each site and coherence in all pair-wise sites. In three out of six subjects, gamma-oscillations were observed when the subjects started the tasks. All subjects showed widespread power decrease in the range of 11-20 Hz and power increase in the 31-60 Hz ranges during performance of the visuomotor tasks. The changes in gamma-range power were more vigorous during the tracking and threading tasks compared with the wrist extension. Coherence analysis also showed similar task-related changes in coherence estimates. In contrast to the power changes, coherence estimates increased not only in gamma-range but also at lower frequencies during the manipulative visuomotor tasks. Paired sites with significant increases in coherence estimates were located within and between sensory and motor areas. These results support the hypothesis that coherent cortical activity may play a role in sensorimotor integration or attention.
