Title: Brain Activity Changes During Walking Affected by Cuieng in Parkinson's Disease Patients Viewed by sLORETA Imaging. Objectives: The aim of this diploma thesis is to acertain changes in electrical activity of the brain, evaluated by sLORETA program, between gait affected by visual and auditory cueing and normal comfortable gait in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods: This experiment was conducted on 11 patients with Parkinson's Disease aged between 60-78 years. The electrical activity of the brain was registred by scalp EEG during the whole experiment. The experiment consisted of 4 parts. In the beginning we measured resting EEG with closed and then opened eyes (5 + 5 minutes), after that we measured EEG during normal comfortable gait on 3 meters long track (3 minutes). Subsequently we measured EEG during walking affected by cueing, again on the 3 meters long track (3 + 3 minutes). The order of visual and auditory cueing was randomized. Visual cueing was mediated by white lines (tapes) stuck to the floor within 50 centimetres of each other. Auditory cueing was mediated by a metronome. The basic rhythm of the metronome was set on the 70 BPM. Next, the data from the experiment were transferred into the sLORETA program, which enabled statistical proccessing and also imaging of the active...
