Frontal shift of posterior alpha activity is correlated with cognitive impairment in early Alzheimer's disease: A magnetoencephalography–beamformer study

Background:  Induced‐oscillatory activity is considered a key factor for understanding functional processes in the brain. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) can measure oscillatory activity non‐invasively with higher spatial resolution than electroencephalography (EEG). However, MEG has rarely been used to explore functional abnormalities that may represent state markers in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD).
