Transcranal Magnetic Brain Stimulation

In addition to transcranial Electric Stimulation (tES) we use transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to (temporarily) manipulate the functionality of the human brain.
Thereby a changing magnetic field inducts a electric current having a minimal local distribution in targeted brain regions.
Thereby a coil functioning as magnetic field generator is placed near the subject's head.

TMS-Neuro-Navigator

The TMS- / Neuro-Navigator is primarily used to achieve optimal spatial accuracy during transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
Based on information about the (brain) anatomy of the test participants (MR, CT, etc.) and the target area of the stimulation,
the navigator can be used to determine the optimal spatial position of the stimulation coil and guide the examiner in positioning it.
