We are going to use motor imagery based BCI for stroke rehabilitation and currently I am going through some papers that discuss the EEG-EMG coherence and time lag. While the results of different studies are not quite consistent and you can see values around 50 MS for LFP-EEG time lag in monkeys (Morrow and Miller, 2003; Rivera-Alvidrez et al., 2010), you will see conduction time measured by TMS around 20 ms(Samii et al., 1998), and finally EEG-EMG lag time of around 26 ms (Whitham et al., 2011).
Could someone please let me know how to interpret these differences?
