Current status and potential application of navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation in neurosurgery: a literature review [PDF]
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive neurophysiologic technique that can stimulate the human brain. Positioning of the coil was often performed based merely on external landmarks on the head, meaning that the anatomical target in the ...

Benefit of Action Naming Over Object Naming for Visualization of Subcortical Language Pathways in Navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation-Based Diffusion Tensor Imaging-Fiber Tracking. [PDF]
Visualization of functionally significant subcortical white matter fibers is needed in neurosurgical procedures in order to avoid damage to the language network during resection.

Resting motor threshold in navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation: relationship between inter-individual variance and distinct clinical and anatomical factors [PDF]
Background Navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) is increasingly used in neurosurgical practice for preoperative motor mapping. The resting motor threshold (RMT), a measure of cortical excitability, has been linked to postoperative motor ...

Active versus resting neuro‐navigated robotic transcranial magnetic stimulation motor mapping
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) motor mapping is a safe, non‐invasive method that can be used to study corticomotor organization. Motor maps are typically acquired at rest, and comparisons to maps obtained during muscle activation have been both ...

Mapping visuospatial attention: the greyscales task in combination with repetitive navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation [PDF]
Background Visuospatial attention is executed by the frontoparietal cortical areas of the brain. Damage to these areas can result in visual neglect. We therefore aimed to assess a combination of the greyscales task and repetitive navigated transcranial ...
