Abstract :
Summary form only given. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with EEG measurement has been used to eliminate cortical reactivity and connectivity. We developed an electroencephalogram (EEG) with TMS measurement system. In our system, it is possible to measure EEG after TMS without the artifacts of the magnetic stimulation on EEG. In this study, we stimulated the right motor area and occipital area using a figure-eight coil and measured the effect on the alpha wave to investigate area-to-area neuronal connections.
