This article reviews the evolution and recent developments of transcranial magnetic brain stimulation using figure-eight coils, discussing their geometric variations, characteristics, and applications in neuroscience and medicine. Recent topics such as focality, tradeoff between depth and focality, and approaches for extending depth are also explored.
This article reviews the evolution and recent developments of transcranial magnetic brain stimulation using figure-eight coils to stimulate localized areas in the human brain. Geometric variations of figure-eight coils and their characteristics are reviewed and discussed for applications in neuroscience and medicine. Recent topics of figure-eight coils, such as focality of figure-eight coils, tradeoff between depth and focality, and approaches for extending depth, are discussed.
