Advances in neurotechnologies are revolutionizing our understanding of complex neural circuits and enabling new treatments for disorders of the human brain. In the vestibular system, electromagnetic s...
In this narrative review, we describe evolving neuromodulatory techniques including magnetic vestibular stimulation (MVS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and tr...
MVS triggers both vestibular nystagmic (persistent) and perceptual (lasting ∼1 min) responses that may serve as a model to study central adaptational mechanisms and pathomechanisms of hemispatial negl...
Neuromodulation has a bright future as a potential treatment of vestibular dysfunction. MVS, DBS and TMS may provide new and sophisticated, customizable, and specific treatment options of vestibular s...
Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a safe, effective, and well-tolerated intervention for depression; it is currently approved for treatment-resistant depression. This article summarizes the mechani...
This pilot feasibility study aimed to evaluate the effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) on chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (CRCI), and we report here on the first patient....
Deleterious cognitive changes due to chemotherapy or CRCI are commonly referred to as "chemo brain". With the increasing survival of cancer patients, this poorly understood and inadequately treated co...
A 58-year-old woman, diagnosed 7 years prior with left breast cancer, underwent partial mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy. She then received four cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy followed by r...
This first patient in the phase 1 clinical trial testing of TMS for the treatment of "chemo brain" provided important lessons for feasibility and insights into mechanisms of potential benefit....
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients need novel therapeutic interventions since most experience residual symptoms despite treatment. Converging evidence suggest that OCD involves dysfunction o...
We describe a routine to precisely localize cortical muscle representations within the primary motor cortex with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) based on the functional relation between induce...
Personalized treatments are gaining momentum across all fields of medicine. Precision medicine can be applied to neuromodulatory techniques, in which focused brain stimulation treatments such as repet...
Repetitive paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTMS) at indirect (I) wave intervals increases motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) produced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to primary ...
Eighteen young adults (aged 24.6 ± 4.2 years) participated in four sessions in which iTMS targeting early (1.5-millisecond interval; iTMS...
MEP amplitude was increased after iTMS (p < 0.01), and this was greater for PA responses (p < 0.01) but not different between iTMS intervals (p = 0.9). Irrespective of iTMS interval and coil current, ...
The timing of iTMS failed to influence which I-wave circuits were potentiated by the intervention. In contrast, decreases in the N45 suggest that the neuroplastic effects of iTMS may include disinhibi...
Noninvasive brain stimulation and neuroimaging have revolutionized human neuroscience with a multitude of applications, including diagnostic subtyping, treatment optimization, and relapse prediction. ...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common chronic, autoimmune-mediated inflammatory and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system. The treatment of MS has enormous progress with disease-modify...
