The neural correlates of spontaneous hemodynamic
fluctuations (resting-state fMRI) are not fully
understood. Using simultaneous LFP-fMRI data acquired
from awake macaques in the resting state, we examined
the relationship between the low (< 8 Hz) and high
(40-80 Hz) frequency bands of the local field potential
in terms of their correlations with the fMRI signal. We
observed that fluctuations in the power of the low and
high frequency bands were weakly correlated with one
another and provided complementary information about
fMRI signals, suggesting that the correlation of LFP
with BOLD arises from at least two distinct processes.
