Disclosed are apparatus and methods for delivery of transcranial magnetic stimulation. The apparatus includes a TMS coil (10) which when energized generates an electric field substantially parallel to a long axis of the coil (10) and substantially normal to a surface of the coil (10). Furthermore disclosed an apparatus for delivery of TMS in which a coil (10) is adapted to a robotic member for computer-aided control and delivery. Further disclosed are methods of TMS planning and delivery in which subject images are utilized to plan, position and orient the TMS coil (10) for precise delivery. Disclosed also are TMS coils (10) having unique designs to better focus and direct magnetic stimulation.
L'invention concerne un appareil et des méthodes permettant de distribuer une stimulation magnétique transcrânienne (TMS). Ledit appareil comprend une bobine TMS qui lorsqu'elle est mise sous tension génère un champ électrique sensiblement parallèle à un axe longitudinal de la bobine et sensiblement perpendiculaire à une surface de ladite bobine. L'invention concerne également un appareil permettant de distribuer une TMS, une bobine étant adaptée à un élément robotique afin d'effectuer une commande et une distribution informatiques. L'invention concerne également des méthodes de planification et de distribution de TMS dans lesquelles on utilise des images d'un sujet pour planifier, positionner et orienter la bobine TMS afin d'effectuer une distribution précise. L'invention concerne, en outre, des bobines TMS de conceptions uniques permettant de mieux focaliser et diriger une stimulation magnétique.
