Deskripsi

Summary: Spatial targeting in transcranial magnetic stimulation protocols does not typically account for the idiosyncratic functional organization of individual human brains. Here, we provide a protocol for implementing targeted functional network stimulation (TANS), which accounts for each individual’s unique functional neuroanatomy and cortical folding patterns. Using an example dataset, we describe how to create a head model and estimate the best coil placement and stimulation intensity to minimize off-target effects.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Lynch et al. (2022).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
