Mobile Phone Emissions Modulate Brain Excitability in Patients with Focal Epilepsy

Mobile Phone Emissions Modulate Brain Excitability in Patients with Focal Epilepsy

Background: Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) emitted by mobile phones had been shown to increase cortical excitability in healthy subjects following 45 min of continuous exposure on the ipsilateral hemisphere. Objective: Using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), the current study assessed the effe...
