Brain-behavior relations: transcranial magnetic stimulation: a review

Paolo Maria Rossini et al. IEEE Eng Med Biol Mag. 2010 Jan-Feb.

Abstract

In recent years, noninvasive brain stimulation methods have been proposed as the next-generation technology to probe and eventually interfere with brain function. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a 20-year-old technique originally introduced to investigate nervous propagation along the corticospinal tract, spinal roots, and peripheral nerves in humans. TMS is extensively used in clinical neurophysiology, including rehabilitation and intraoperative monitoring.
