In healthy people, rhythmic activation of the motor cortex in the 15-30 Hz frequency range accompanies and contributes to voluntarily-generated postural contractions of contralateral muscle. In patients with Parkinson's disease, an abnormal low-frequency activation of the motor areas of the cortex occurs and has been directly linked to the characteristic 3-6 Hz rest tremor of this disease. We therefore investigated whether the motor cortex is involved in the transmission of the rhythmic motor drive responsible for generating essential tremor.
