In 2008, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation(TMS) figure-8 coil for the treatment of depression, and in 2018, FDA approved the deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (DTMS) H1 coil jointly developed by Yingchi and BrainsWay for the treatment of treatment-resistant depression. Two years later, the FDA approved the H1 coil for the... Read more
1.What is MEP? Appropriate stimulation is given to peripheral nerves, peripheral sensory organs or a specific part of the central nervous system, and the relevant "lock-time" biopotentials are recorded in the corresponding parts of the peripheral or central nervous system, so as to functionally judge the degree of lesions. Features:1.There is a certain latency period2.Because... Read more
①What is the basic principle of TMS? TMS is a non-invasive neuromodulation technology. The time-varying pulsed magnetic field can penetrate the skull, act on the central nervous system, generate induced currents, and cause a series of physiological and biochemical reactions, thereby affecting metabolism and neuronal excitability in the brain in order to treat psychiatric and...

Ⅰ. What is transcranial magnetic stimulation? Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) technology applies a time-varying pulsed magnetic field to penetrate the skull to form an induced electric field in the brain, thereby generating an induced current that acts on the nervous system, causing a series of physiological and biochemical reactions, affecting brain metabolism and changing neuronal excitability to improve...

Journal: Hum Brain Mapp. 2020;41(5):1362-1371.Authors: He Z, Zhao J, Shen J, Muhlert N, Elliott R, Zhang D. Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex (RVLPFC) is crucially involved in downregulating physical and social pain. However, it remains unclear whether the RVLPFC is more specific to either physical or social pain. Objective:... Read more
Journal: J Neurosci. 2021;41(6):1331-1339.Authors: Zhao, J., Mo, L., Bi, R., He, Z., Chen, Y., Xu, F., Xie, H., & Zhang, D. Background: The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and ventrolateral PFC (VLPFC) are both crucial structures involved in voluntary emotional regulation. However, it remains unclear whether the functions of these two cortical regions that are involved... Read more
