The present invention provides for Stereotactic Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (sTMS) at predetermined locations with the brain or spinal cord and incorporates an array of electromagnets arranged in a specified configuration where selected coils in the array are pulsed simultaneously. Activation of foci demonstrated by functional MRI or other imaging techniques can be used to locate the neural region affected. Imaging techniques can also be utilized to determine the location of the designated targets.

L'invention concerne la stimulation magnétique transcrânienne stéréotaxique (sTMS) en des emplacements prédéfinis du cerveau ou de la moelle épinière, au moyen d'un réseau d'électro-aimants disposés en une configuration spécifique, des enroulements sélectionnés du réseau recevant des impulsions simultanées. L'activation de points focaux, telle que démontrée par l'IRM fonctionnelle ou d'autres techniques d'imagerie, peut être appliquée pour localiser la zone neuronale affectée. Des techniques d'imagerie peuvent également servir à la détermination de l'emplacement de cibles désignées.
