AbstractBackground: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has strong beneficial effects for treating movement disorders. The related cortical mechanisms can be studied with magnetoencephalography (MEG) during active DBS. However, MEG is prone to artefacts induced by the electrical stimulation and the movement of ferromagnetic DBS components. Although artefacts might vary between DBS devices from different manufacturers, no such comparison has been performed.
