Introduction: Noninvasive skin imaging requires very high spatial resolution and high SNR in a FOV on the order of 10 x 10 cm coupled with an acceptable scan time. These requirements are mandatory for characterization of healthy skin, inflammatory skin diseases, and differentiation of skin tumors. To image such microscopic structures within the human skin in vivo, special coil setups are used a...

This research proposed a new design of helmet-shaped array transcranial magnetic stimulation coil system. It was constructed using several sagittal directional wires and several coronal directional wires. By varying the current direction and strength on each wire, this array coil system could be constructed into the circular coil and figure-eight coil of different size. Also, this proposed coil...

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been proposed as a tinnitus treatment option. Promising results have been obtained by consecutive stimulation of lateral frontal and auditory brain regions. We investigated a combined stimulation paradigm targeting the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) with double cone coil rTMS, followed by stimulation of the temporo-parietal junction area ...
