The H-coils are a new development in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) research, allowing direct stimulation of deeper neuronal pathways than does standard TMS. Objective: This study assessed possible health risks, and some cognitive and emotional effects, of two H-coil versions designed to…
Seizures are rare during repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) treatment, but estimating risk is difficult because of study heterogeneity and sampling limitations. Moreover, there are few studies comparing rates between device manufacturers. Objective: The objective of this study was to calculate rTMS…
A group of European experts reappraised the guidelines on the therapeutic efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) previously published in 2014 Methods: These updated recommendations take into account all rTMS publications, including data prior to 2014, as well as currently reviewed…
With respect to TMS coils used in TMS, the strength of a magnetic field decreases as it travels from its source at a rate of R-3 or 1/R3, where R is the distance from the center of the coil. For a typical figure-8…
