Shrnutí:The relation between brain functional activity and the underlying structure is complex and varies depending on the specific brain region. Recently, we used graph signal processing to introduce the structural-decoupling index (SDI), a novel metric quantifying structure-function coupling in brain regions, based on graph spectral filtering of functional activity. At slow temporal scales accessible with resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging, the SDI showed a meaningful spatial gradient from unimodal (more coupled) to transmodal regions (more liberal). It also showed to perform very well for brain fingerprinting; i.e., individuals could be classified with near perfect accuracy based on their SDI. Here, we investigate structure-function coupling at faster temporal scales and its specificity to individuals, by means of resting-state magnetoencephalography (MEG) of 84 healthy subjects. We found that the MEG SDI forms a cortical gradient from task-positive regions, more coupled, to task-negative regions, highly decoupled. Great specificity of the SDI to individuals was confirmed, with largest subject classification accuracies in the beta and alpha bands. We conclude that structure-function coupling changes across temporal scales of investigation and provides rich signatures of individual brain organization at rest.
