Abstract
We utilized computational analysis to investigate the impact of skull defects and skull implants on the TMS-induced EF. Our findings revealed a noteworthy alteration in the induced EF when acute skull defects were present. When high-conductivity titanium plates were used, we observed a pronounced increase in the peak EF, accompanied by a shift in the induced EF from the center towards both ends of the implant. These findings underscore the importance of carefully considering skull defects and implant materials during TMS.
期刊介绍：
Neurophysiologie Clinique / Clinical Neurophysiology (NCCN) is the official organ of the French Society of Clinical Neurophysiology (SNCLF). This journal is published 6 times a year, and is aimed at an international readership, with articles written in English. These can take the form of original research papers, comprehensive review articles, viewpoints, short communications, technical notes, editorials or letters to the Editor. The theme is the neurophysiological investigation of central or peripheral nervous system or muscle in healthy humans or patients. The journal focuses on key areas of clinical neurophysiology: electro- or magneto-encephalography, evoked potentials of all modalities, electroneuromyography, sleep, pain, posture, balance, motor control, autonomic nervous system, cognition, invasive and non-invasive neuromodulation, signal processing, bio-engineering, functional imaging.
