Objective: To investigate the efficacy of multiday repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation
(rTMS) to the occipital cortex in a patient with continuous visual phosphene hallucinations …

Phosphene sensation is commonly used to measure cortical excitability during transcranial
magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the occipital cortex. However, some individuals lack this …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS)
technique in which an electrical current flows through a coil, generating a magnetic field …

OBJECTIVE: Though a cortical visual prosthesis is a promising method for treating severe
visual disturbances, long-term blindness is known to depress visual cortex activity. We …

Objectives: To quantify phosphene thresholds evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation
(TMS) in the occipital cortex as a function of induced current direction. Methods: Phosphene …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation applied to the occipital cortex can elicit phosphenes.
Changes in the phosphene threshold provide a measure of visual cortex excitability …

Abstract 1 Hz repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is considered to have an
inhibitory effect in healthy people because it suppresses the excitability of the motor or visual …

Article abstract The effects of low-frequency (1-Hz) repetitive transcranial magnetic
stimulation on visual cortex excitability were investigated by measuring phosphene …

Patients affected by right parietal lobe lesion can be severely impaired in sustained attention
tasks, particularly in the left visual field. For example, patients with right parietal stroke are …

The aim of the present study was to explore further the effects of light deprivation (LD) on
visual cortex excitability. Healthy subjects reporting reliable induction of phosphenes by …
