Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Schizophrenia [PDF]
Schizophrenia Bulletin, 2015 People with schizophrenia typically experience auditory hallucinations or delusions during acute episodes. Although effective drug treatments are available, many have intractable symptoms that do not recover between acute episodes. One proposed alternative to drug treatments is transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

Preconditioning of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation with transcranial direct current stimulation: evidence for homeostatic plasticity in the human motor cortex [PDF]
, 2004 Recent experimental work in animals has emphasized the importance of homeostatic plasticity as a means of stabilizing the properties of neuronal circuits. Here, we report a phenomenon that indicates a homeostatic pattern of cortical plasticity in healthy

Monitoring cortical excitability during repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in children with ADHD: a single-blind, sham-controlled TMS-EEG study [PDF]
, 2012 Background: Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) allows non-invasive stimulation of the human brain. However, no suitable marker has yet been established to monitor the immediate rTMS effects on cortical areas in children.

Complementary methods of diagnosis and treatment in movement disorders [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2012 The cortical and subcortical regions are functionally connected, and normal well-coordinated movement results from their interaction. Abnormal movements are the consequence of a lesion or malfunction in the basal ganglia (BG) and their interconnections ...
