Clinical Application of TMS to Epilepsy
The role of transcranial magnetic stimulation in epileptology is discussed in this article. Usefulness of TMS are discussed as a diagnostic tool in testing altered cortical excitability in patients with epilepsy and the modes of action of antiepileptic drugs, which are helpful to evaluate the pathophysiology of epilepsy. Also potential therapeutic tool in epilepsy with repetitive transcranial m...
متن کاملTMS, cortical excitability and epilepsy: the clinical impact.
Paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (ppTMS) is a well-established method for non-invasive measurement of cortical excitability, alterations of which are the core background of epilepsy. For the past 20 years this technique has been extensively used to assess patients with epilepsy. We present here a critical overview of these studies, with emphasis on their translation to the clinica...
متن کاملClinical application of neuroimaging in epilepsy.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of neuroimaging in clinical practice and to assess the prevalence of detected structural abnormalities in epilepsy patients in a clinical set up. METHODS 919 outpatients were identified and the scan results reviewed. A total of 677 patients had chronic active epilepsy (88 had idiopathic generalised epilepsy (IGE), 588 had localisation related epilepsy, one had sy...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
TMS: A Tailored Method of Stimulation for Refractory Focal Epilepsy?
Commentary Neurostimulation-based treatments for epilepsy are an alternative for the many patients who remain refractory to standard antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), but modalities such as vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, and responsive neurostimulation require surgical implanta-tion of hardware and are accompanied by attendant risks (1). Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), by c...
