Starting Current Application for Magnetic Stimulation

Methods of high current magnetic field generator for transcranial magnetic stimulation application

Treatment Pulse Application for Magnetic Stimulation

Treatment and diagnosis can be made in difficult areas simply by changing the output pulse form of the magnetic stimulation device. However, there is a limitation in the range of treatments and diagnoses of a conventional sinusoidal stimulation treatment pulse because the intensity, width, and form of the pulse must be changed according to the lesion type. This paper reports a multidischarge me...

The Clinical Application of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) provides psychiatrists with a new treatment o!ering in clinical practice. Providing an o"ce-based procedure is new for psychiatrists, and incorporating this procedure into practice has brought new challenges. The clinical delivery of TMS has various possibilities for o"ce operations, management, and overall structure. Di!erent clinical models and provider...

Combined application of Magnetic and Electric Stimulation

Electrical stimulation has been known since Galvani’s work with frogs in the 1780’s and is the most widely used method of stimulation in modern clinical medicine. Magnetic stimulation does however have certain advantages over electrical stimulation including its ability to stimulate nerves painlessly. It appears a natural progression to try a method of combined magnetic and electric stimulation...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation: the method and application.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a noninvasive method for stimulation of brain that is based on the ability of magnetic field to penetrate skull and brain meninges, subsequently inducing electric current in the brain tissues that produces neuronal depolarization and generation of action potentials. Moreover, transcranial magnetic stimulation has effects on neurochemical and synaptic process...
