Functional brain activation—anterior cingulate cortex.
<p>AC: Top row—Tapping: pre-exposure group image (N = 9). Middle row—Tapping: post- minus pre-exposure condition (control, N = 5). Bottom row—Tapping: post- minus pre-exposure condition (60 Hz MF, N = 4). Results centered on the point of Talairach coordinates (X = -7, Y = -6, Z = 39).</p
Time series of the magnetic induction measured during the 60 Hz and BOLD sequences.

Pre-exposure finger tapping averaged activation map of the contralateral motor cortex regions (top row) and the ipsilateral cerebellum (bottom row) for 20 participants for the full study at 3000 μT.
<p>The contralateral motor cortex images (top row) presented are centered on the Talairach coordinates corresponding to S1 (x = -41, y = -31, z = 53) for the motor cortex region. The ipsilateral cerebellum images (bottom row) presented are centered on the Talairach coordinates corresponding to the anterior lobe of the ipsilateral cerebellum (x = 18, 7 = -47, z = -15).</p
Activation in the left intraparietal sulcus during the mental rotation task.
<p>Top) Pre-exposure (N = 21); Middle) Post- minus pre- exposure in the control group (N = 11); Bottom) Post- minus pre- exposure in the 60 Hz MF exposure group (N = 10). Results centered on the point of Talairach coordinates (X = -30, Y = -84, Z = 18).</p
Activation in the right occipital cortex during the mental rotation task.
<p>Top) Pre-exposure (N = 21); Middle) Post- minus pre- exposure in the control group (N = 11); Bottom) Post- minus pre- exposure in the 60 Hz MF exposure group (N = 10). Results centered on the point of Talairach coordinates (X = 27, Y = -59, Z = -23).</p
Activation in the posterior cingulate during the mental rotation task.
<p>Top) Pre-exposure (N = 21); Middle) Post- minus pre- exposure in the control group (N = 11); Bottom) Post- minus pre- exposure in the 60 Hz MF exposure group (N = 10). Results centered on the point of Talairach coordinates (X = -5, Y = -53, Z = 16).</p
Functional brain activation—cerebellum.
<p>Cerebellum: Top row—Tapping: pre- exposure group image (N = 9). Middle row—Tapping: post- minus pre-exposure condition (control, N = 5). Bottom row—Tapping: post- minus pre-exposure condition (60 Hz MF, N = 4).</p
Comparison of the magnetic induction power spectrum for the 60 Hz and BOLD sequences.

Magnetic field gradient.
<p>The maximal MF level was obtained at the cortical level. The variation of the MF intensity depends on the position along the bore Z-axis and is shown in red. The MF intensity delivered by the gradient coil linearly decreases to reach zero at the isocentre (at the level of the first cervical vertebrae).</p
Time course of experiment.
<p>Sequence of imaging and testing periods, including one hour of control or 60 Hz MF exposure to a 60 Hz MF at 3000 μT during one hour.</p
