Pulse Width Affects Scalp Sensation of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Pulse Width Affects Scalp Sensation of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Background: Scalp sensation and pain comprise the most common side effect of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which can reduce tolerability and complicate experimental blinding. Objective: We explored whether changing the width of single TMS pulses affects the quality and tolerability of the...
