Zusammenfassung

Background: Schizophrenic patients exhibit more activity
in the electroencephalographic delta and theta frequency
range than do control subjects. Using magnetic source
imaging (MSI) our study aimed to explore this phenomenon
in the magnetoencephalogram (MEG), the distribution
of its sources, and associations between symptom
profiles and sources of low-frequency activity in the brain.
Methods: Whole-head MEG recordings were obtained
from 28 schizophrenic patients and 20 healthy control
subjects during a resting condition. The generators of the
focal magnetic slow waves were located employing a
single moving dipole model. Distributed or multiple delta
and theta sources were captured by the minimum norm
estimate.
Results: Both localization procedures showed slow wave
activity to be enhanced in schizophrenic patients compared
with control subjects. Focal slow wave activity
differed most between groups in frontotemporal and in
posterior regions. Slow wave activity was associated with
symptom characteristics in that positive symptoms varied
with frontal delta and theta activity.
Conclusions: Results indicate that activity in low-frequency
bands in schizophrenic patients exceeds the activity
of control subjects in distinct areas, and that this focal
clustering of neuromagnetic slow waves may be related to psychopathologic characteristics.
