Abstract

AbstractThere is renewed interest in electrical activity that extends beyond the typical electrophysiological 100 Hz bandwidth. This activity, often in the anterior temporal lobe, has been attributed to processes ranging from memory consolidation to epileptiform activity. Here, using an open-access resting state magnetoencephalography (MEG) dataset (n = 89), and a second task-based MEG dataset, we could reliably localise high-frequency power to the temporal lobes across multiple bands up to 300–400 Hz. A functional connectivity analysis of this activity revealed a robust resting state bilateral network between the temporal lobes. However, we also found robust coherence in the 100–200 and 200–300 Hz bands between source reconstructed MEG data and the electrooculography (EOG) localised to within the temporal poles. Additional denoising schemes applied to the data could reduce power localisation to the temporal poles but the topography of the functional network did not drastically alter. Whilst it is clear that this network is biological and robust to established denoising methods, we cannot definitively rule yet on whether this is of neural or myogenic origin.
